    It's so hard to know what type of film I should use to inform me of the almost certain impending peril. Is this a "me versus the sinister state" type of situation, or is it a "I'm part of the state versus an organised gang" type of situation. Alternatively, it could be an "it's all so secret, no-one knows what's going on" type of thing. I hope it's not something weird like a David Cronenberg film. I'll let you know if any badly made typewriter-insects walk into the room, or if anyone starts having sex with their computer screen.

    All these years of watching action films. You'd think I'd know what to do by now.

    One thing's for certain, I should definitely be wearing sunglasses, even inside. And forward rolls are the preferred means of getting around the place.

    Re: MI6 in the car park

    Firstly, Im very pleased the M6 isnt being built through your car park, as I initially mis-read.

    Secondly, thanks to Noel & SouthernSoftie for making me laugh so much with their posts here, you both should be script writers (or maybe you are...)

    Thirdly, it is clear to me Noel you need to be extremely vigilant, I'm not entirely convinced there arnt alien overtones to this. I think it is important you trust no one (you shouldnt from accounts anyway) analyse any movement or behaviour that is in the slightest unusual. Keep your back to a wall at all times and only drink/eat things after tested by someone else (from accounts say).

    Keep the glasses on, thats basic, check your hidden armoury in the photocopier (damn, given it away), your spare clothes for after the knife fights and your OS 1:50,000 maps of the world chips that display on the inside of your glasses. Dont walk and read this maps at the same time unless passed out at level 4, Health &Safety- spy walk & read course.

    Keep checkin your spelling and dont answer any any question asked in Rusian in English, that will just give it away. Good luck Noel, I may self destruct in 30 seconds unless I can get coffee.

    You'll know things are about to warm up when the music in your head speeds up at the same time as events around you go into slow motion.

    When you look at your watch, does your vision suddenly break into 4 geometric blocks, with annoying beeps ticking off the seconds, a la 24?

    What other things can we learn from film to keep you safe?

    When getting on a train, and someone talks to you in your native tongue, reply in German, even if only getting the 7.06 to Blackfriars. Just to be safe.

    The person fiddling with the telephone exchange box *is* hooking up a tap on your line, so you *are* within your rights to kill them.

    If someone bumps into in the office, burn your jacket in your waste bin: they've secreted a GPS tracking device on your person.

    Only use your mobile walking along a river/canal bank: makes disposal after each call easier (just toss it in).

    Good point SS I'd forgotten the phone thing.

    Top Tip #2: Don't try changing the SIM in your phone and feeling safe, the trace works on a combination of the SIM code and the specific hanset code combined. Cheap PAYG and into the canal sounds best.

    At least with the good weather there is less chance of poisoned tip umbrellas being an issue.

    And keep the plastic face wax of Tom Cruise handy, spray on if you feel followed, alternatively stick a picture of TC on a Halloween mask but keep some spare elastic in case the one holding the mask in place snaps.

    Ensure you remember where you parked the invisible car.

    Although this seemed like a great idea when I first bought it. People kept breaking into it because they could see the sat nav was in the glove compartment. Also, I used to get funny looks driving it, and it's much harder to surreptitiously pick your nose when you're driving an invisible car.

    In fact, a few months ago I decided to have it painted to look like a non-invisble car. Imaging my horror when I realised the guy doing the spray job had sprayed it as an HTP model, whereas actually it's a VRS. Also, he did it in standard pacific blue, whereas it had been storm blue (which is a metallic colour) when it was invisible. :thunbdown:

    Should've read the manual Noel, beginners error..agents spraying invisible cars is causing unforseen problems
