I just read this story, and thereby finished my recent James Bond literary odyssey. (Actually, I didn't read "For Your Eyes Only," since my library didn't have it.)

Anyway, in the story Bond intentionally misses killing the assassin, and wounds her hand. He then says that he scared the living daylights out of her.

I haven't seen the movie in so long I can't remember when he says it, or if indeed the cute blonde is even the sniper.

You've got the context close enough, I think - in the film, he does indeed shoot to miss (pegging her as barely able to hold the gun the right way), and saying "Whoever she was, I must have scared the living daylights out of her."

[Xben had some of the details right (it's set in a car, but FIXED: after the pre-titles), but since it was past rather than future tense and reflective of him NOT being seriously bothered rather than vowing to go after her, it was just too far off.]

lancesrealm, you're up.

Ok, back to the books for this one...

What were the nationalities of James Bond's parents?

Dang, should have remembered that about his dad. Blame it on me being from across the pond.

From the books of Gardner, what is Bonds most oft used alias?

Hell, I don't think anyone read the post-Fleming books in general.

[And I'm mildly ticked off at England being marked off as "close enough" to Scotland [Razz] ]

Uh, Rick - no-one's getting it. Care to give the answer and have another go/leave it open?

Okay, with no movement here in over a week, I'm going to invoke TTD and ask another question...

In the pre-titles of Goldfinger, Bond kills a Mexican, quipping that he won't "be using heroin-flavoured bananas to finance a revolution" any more.

Subsequently, in which movie does Bond team up with a group using heroin to finance a revolution? [Smile]
