Shopping for a story.
This day had been hard, opportunities for finding a story had not come her way. Michelle decided that retail therapy was needed. Calling a cab she told the driver to hit the main shopping street.
“Your command is my desire mam”
Michelle wondered why such an obviously well heeled British man, should be driving a cab in her town. The journalist in her reached for a story. She got much more than she desired. As the cab picked up speed, its driver called out
“Hit the deck miss”, … “My name it’s Bond, James Bond”.

She better look out – being a Bond girl is a dangerous business!
That’s so true, thank you Iain
funny, i didn’t expect that. i thought of murder and mayhem. 🙂
Thank you plaridel. Murder and mayhem do usually follows Mr Bond around.
She needs to make sure he doesn’t take her on the dance floor with people gunning for him. Lout
There would certainly be a degree of mayhem on the dance floor if Bond stepped on it.
I’m sure she’ll have a marvellous adventure 🙂
Ha but will it be an adventure in which she lives to tell all.
Enjoyed this Michael. Michelle could have a scoop here – she’s the first journalist to know who the new James Bond is!
That’s spot on JS, but Michelle has yet to write up her scoop.
Let’s hope she survives long enough to call her story in.
If she survives, it means that I also have a scoop. Fingers crossed
What a surprise! I hope Michelle gets her story – and stays in one piece!
Michelle likes surprises, however she has yet to get her scoop back to the press office.
A blast from the past 🙂 Most enjoyable.
Bond is hoping to advoid blasts, untill he gets his contract signed by the film company. Whilst Michelle wants to deliver her scoop to the news media.
Dear Michael,
Michelle certainly got more than she bargained for. Now I have to wonder, which Bond? Sean Connery, Pierce Brosnan or Daniel Craig? 😉
Shalom,
Rochelle
As long as it’s not Timothy Dalton 😉
Poor Timothy
Could it even perhaps be a future Bond actor! … If it is she certainly will have scoop.
This was a fun ride, Michael. Methinks she’ll have more than a story to tell… being a Bond girl not only involves risk… 😉
I never have been any good at telling the romantic side of a story, but so far the fun’s been all Bonds…
Ha, won’t we all love to read that story!
We certainly would, for a scoops a scoop. Who will be the new Bond is top secret
With Bond as driver, Michelle is up for the ride of her life. Who knows if she can impress bond enough, what is up in store for later.
Michelle is not your typical Bond girl, but she will impress the new Bond…
I would not have expected to find James driving a cab. Bet she gets her story and then some.
After Daniel Craig the new Bond actor may do things quite different, he may be rather like Superman and have a reporter friend called Michelle. Thank you Jo for making me think deeper about Michelle’s role…
You know the more I think on this the more I like the idea. But she needs a great moniker like Moneypenny’s. Yes I am liking this quite a lot.
Thank you so much, Jo.
Well she shopped well for her story! Difficult to choose which Bond from Sean and Roger.
Thank you Jilly, it is amazing how the Bond stories go on and on.
See, there’s always a story as long as you’re prepared to look. 🙂 She was lucky but I presume he was waiting there for her, as he knew she was in danger even if she didn’t
Now you have added another layer, and got me thinking. Pleased to see you back Micheal.
I knew that someday he would have to retire… but somehow I expect him to have a hard time even keeping his driver’s license.
Perhaps he is not licensed to drive, thank you for commenting Björn
Michelle will certainly have a story to tell… if she survives, that is. Brilliant take on the prompt.
I my mind she survives and even starts to help and guide this new Bond
Well, the story found her! She’s in for an adventure. A very entertaining story, Michael.
Thank you Brenda, I have a whole new role for Michelle, perhaps even as an aid to Bond
Very creative & entertaining.
Thank you for your support, it is appreciated
Wow..I am sure she would get more than a story being the Bond girl!
I am thinking about whether her story might be developed, thank you Anshu
