I hadn’t intended to write a gush-piece about Daniel Craig, but once I had that first line in my head, the rest just flowed… Enjoy! 🙂
International man of mystery
Emerged from the sea so scantily
With a licence to kill
And ladies to thrill
He’s the greatest double “O” in history!

This is the blog of a woman who is seriously on the edge and I mean right ON the edge…no, not there… just a little bit further… further than that…no, further still…just a tiny bit more… just move slightly to the right a little…no, that’s too much…just move a tad to the left…that’s right, just there…now you’ve moved too far to the left… Damn, what part of the ‘on the edge’ do you not understand? Oh, and her matricidal boy genius, come devil spawn.

I did not click because of the semi naked man. Your opening line reeled me in haha. Hadn’t intended to write a gush piece…
Too buff for my liking. I think Sean and Pierce were the better looking bonds- and those accents!!!!
LikeLiked by 1 person
Craig definitely loses out on the accent front. I think he’s too buff for the character, much as some love it… This is supposed to be a hard-drinking, risk-taking spy, not a gym bunny!

Sign of the times I think. He reminds me of Vladamir Putin for some reason haha. They don’t even look alike or maybe its that Putin tries to emulate that type of macho character and has a shroud of mystery about him.
