I still have my Corgi Man from U.N.C.L.E car which when you press the thingymebob on top of the car they lean out and fire bullets; it's a bit worse for wear from my childhood, but hey, it still works.

Rest in peace David McCallum and thanks for being a childhood hero of mine.

Remember him as Ashley-Pitt in The Great Escape.

Would be a nice touch at the burial if the congregation filled the grave by depositing soil from inside their trouser legs.

RIP David.

If you bought a load of bubblegum (I think) you could send off to be a member of UNCLE. Unfortunately I no longer have mine but I used to carry it around, just in case...

While still wearing my school uniform I remember going to the barbers over the road from my school and asking for an Ilya Kuryakin haircut

10 minutes later I realized that I had been given a short back and sides.

The headmaster at my school had told the barber to give short back and sides to anyone from my school no matter what we asked for.

Very sad.

I had a Man from Uncle case, containing a handgun with telescopic sights, derringer and a a plastic cigarette case that I could switch to 'open channel D'.

[mkmel]

Oh you were well 'ard Cirrus_Minor
