But he's at least - a fucked up, orphaned loner - if not a sociopath.

doesn't he have a love child out there? Also all the loves of his life die. Hs parents, Tracey, Vesper and now M (though that was well dodgy). Not that I take notice or anything...

He never gets to wear jeans and go to the pub. Monte Carlo casinos probably don't serve decent cider.

TEErickOrTEEreat · 26/10/2013 21:49

But he got to be a beach bum and pretend to be dead!

OP posts:
BlingBang · 26/10/2013 21:51

And he gets plenty of pussy galore.

BlingBang · 26/10/2013 21:52

He wore jeans in CR with a nice tight t shirt and a lovely little bomber jacket - not that I take note or anything...

Yamyoid · 26/10/2013 22:10

Sorry, not a dry martini, a vodka martini. We're not that soft Smile

It's the not having to work out what's the dinner int he morning (or even at the beginning of the month) that does it for me.
Restaurants where someone else cooks it or room service everytime
