Bond...James Bond!

599 movies are released into cinemas every year...that doesn't include the made-for-TV movies or the Bollywood films; we are flooded with things to watch and with CSI on almost every night, it's a wonder anyone has time for anything else.

Going to the cinema is fun. The popcorn, the previews, the martinis! Wait; what makes me excited are events! Events with martinis are even better. Events with martinis, dresses, tuxedos and...James Bond! What a brilliant night!

Held at the Mandarin Oriental (swish, just like Bond!) I met up with my friend Rebecca. She invited me to a great event: James Bond, Quantum of Solace in Singapore!




We met at a meditation class. We can meditate ANYWHERE!



We ate canapes, we drank themed martinis (Dr. No, Goldfinger, Casino Royale) and then we took a bus. All of us - in our tuxedos and Bond dresses!


Then, we watched the Quantum of Solace in Gold Class. Gold Class is the best way to watch movies; you have a waiter on call, a blanket, a recliner and a huge screen...plus a long list of drinks, food and surround sound.


This event was organized by my new friend Per. I don't know if he wants to be friends but we are kindred spirits by the fact that we like to get people together and plan things (in our free time/at work) for them to do.


This is Mark and Simone...some glamorous friends of Per's that came along to the event. They are now my friends. See how easy it is! People love events!


Most of this crowd works at DHL. (Good use of office time Per!) Now, I'll include them in my events!


The movies rates in at 7/10 but the party was a definite 10/10!
