I only knew Diana Rigg played the character of Bond's wife

Did enjoy when George Lazenby played Bond for the one time ... he should have had more

 

Did think about the red stamp ... that's all the detail I remember 

 

Thorougly enjoyed playing along @Mi-Amigo ... thank you for compiling the quiz

Thanks @Anonymous 

You can be certain if there's a medical nursing type question or answer to be given, I will usually have a funny anecdote to share. I could write a book rofl

 

I've seen some very funny things people do with vacuum cleaners and milk bottles....LOL

 

AND...back on topic...Zipped

Well mine certainly did. Just qualified and was in Theatres. Was on standby for night emergencies. I was called in unexpectedly as it was another hospital who were meant to be first on call but their theatres were dealing with a road traffic accident.

It was my first ever call out. I was 21 and living at home with Mum and Dad. Let's just say when I told them what I had been called out for, my Dad said 'For gods sake. I think you should give that job up'....rofl
