bit of a spin story there.

Odessa is a favourite vacation spot. Putin will be pushing his luck on that one. -g-

Moving onto spy movies... and spy movie trailers.

I have to note, Harry doesn't know how to make a cup of coffee. He grinds it for far too long,

Must of been for cinamatic drama & art purposes I guess.

So there we go, I am learning more every day -g-
