@thebowlerhatman Despite most people's negative feelings about George Lazenby's performance, On Her Majesty's Secret Service is the best and also without doubt the best Bond music.

@james_xond If I can sleep at all, yes.

@CaswellAdrian @anon_opin No longer true. The law changed at the same time LED lights were legalised (because before that the law explicitly required "incandescent filament bulb" lights, a law that itself was written to abolish acetylene lights.

@KeruboSk Me. It was my great-grandmother. I was very young. I am 60 now.

@SmalltimeJones Many suspected murder victims, being apparently bodies disposed of in suspicious circumstances, have been declared by the investigating authorities to be archeological discoveries and handed over to the relevant academic organisations. It always goes through the police first.

@David_Cassidy3 @RetroMoviesDB I thought his first character was one of "The Dangerous Brothers" which he and Ade E performed as a stage act a very long time ago, developing it into "The Wow Show". Or do I have the timing mixed up?

@dvafp1 @UridiumAuthor No, that's the reason it's called the far side.

@BladeoftheS @_Brian_Hunter Only if they also give bus passes to those who don't or can't drive to work. Otherwise we are subsidising car owners at the expense of everyone else.

@lady_valor_07 I am 60, and it passes my mind occasionally, either when lamenting the passing of yet another friend; or when wondering whether I will go first or my other half, and therefore who will be left behind to face life alone.

@james_xond Your use of the term "stick" to denote a manual gearchange suggests that you are in North America. If you wish to constrain your answers to your own country only, mention it in the question.

[Sev @severs1966]

@james_xond In many countries, including mine (UK) a manual gearchange is normal and an automatic is rare, so absolutely yes. The rise of electric cars may overturn this, because their forward / reverse / park selectors feel much like an automatic.

@Murk441 Many people say it was an awful car. The engine, however, was used in lots of Ford cars afterwards so that must have been OK.
