  • There is an existing collection of James Bond stories in Aventure here:

    • Thanks Rick.
    • Hey Victor
      It really wouldn't matter, the Goldfinger file is the same on the James Bond link. I thought that it was a better recording, but it is the same size as the Goldfinger on the link so I only linked in one direction because of the many Bond shows on the ohter.--------------------------------------------------------Rick
  • Is there anyway to split the mp3 in two parts so I can burn them to cd?
    • Evan,
      There are many good mp3 splitters on the market. There are even free ones. Just split the mp3 and then burn the parts to cds. Just google mp3 splitter and check them out.
    • There's a fine collection of Bond stories in the Adventure discussion. Is there a way of link the two? I've noticed over the years that the BBC has a way of cycling/recycling the same production through many presentations; as a stand alone, then as a Friday/Saturday play, and then possibly as a classic serial. I suppose it's one way to fill air time.
    • I will link them for you Victor.--------------------------------------------------------------------Rick
  • Interesting cast. This one should be worth a listen.

    Remember seeing the movie version on the big screen when it first came out (that dates me, doesn't it?).
    • Mike, I remember going to the movies and watching Dr No when it was released. Dick
    • Just finished listening to this- LOVED it! LOved the book as well as a youth and well the film too. Hope they continue making these as Dr No and You only live Twice I enjoyed as well.
