James Bond's Pussy

Pussy Galore is not a pussy cat, even though the name sounds like one.

Pussy Galore (played by Honor Blackman) was a character in a James Bond film, Goldfinger from 1964 (after the book by Ian Fleming).

Pussy worked for the villain, Goldfinger who kidnapped James Bond. Of course she turns good and ends up being a "Bond girl".



Of course, sometime during the film, James Bond says "A martini...shaken, not stirred". Of course all good martini connoisseurs know that you should never shake a martini!

James Bond never had a cat. Only the villains did - such as the "bald man with the white cat" in For Your Eyes Only - 1981, and the other "bald man with the white cat" - the head of SPECTRE in You Only Live Twice - 1967, Thunderball - 1965, and From Russia With Love - 1963.

Thankfully in later Bond films, there is no association between cats and villains.

........ooooooooOOOOOOOOoooooooo........

It was cooler again. I think the weather is changing and summer is well and truly over. The leaves are also starting to change colour.

Oh dear, I missed Bach's birthday on 21st March. I would have had lots to say. But Eurovision is fun too!
