Danny, nice of you to credit me with the Bond Minicar pic, but in truth I merely plucked it out of Wikki. That however is bye the bye, for I believe in posting it again you have scored another first. If so congratulations, for you now know how very easy it is. There's a little more to it than that in order to post your own pics,I admit, but nothing that such a versatile operator as yourself can't manage. You'd just need a scanner (often part of a printer these days) and registering with the likes of
Photo and image hosting, free photo galleries, photo editing. The rest is experimenting until you get a result. Advice (much better than mine) is readily available here as you know. It's up to you Danny. If you haven't the kit and/or the inclination, no problem. It's your story and your anecdotes that we treasure, and you treat us to both splendidly.
As to gate guardians, the real things are still around, as this story relates:-

Here's hoping for a safe landing since its last one in 1977.
