littlenelly the story behind
Ever thought about this username ?
When I saw the 1967 James Bond Movie ‘You Only Live Twice’ for the first time, I was overwhelmed by the appearance of a gadget, which was the auto-gyrocopter WA-116 designed and build by Ken Wallis.
The used codename of the one, flown by James Bond and kitted out with horrible weapons, was ‘Little Nellie’.
When I started with internet, looking for an unique nickname I rememberd this gyro and voila : littlenelly was born …

group!
On my website, I’ve got a post about Traveling like James Bond, detailing hotels & places & events
where the 007 movies were filmed. I’m going
to make a slide show and widget for people to
use on their Bond fan pages

Life is very funny and God has a great sense
of humor. Though I am a grandfather now, I
did not shave until I needed at to at 25,
two years after my marriage and the birth of
my twin sons!
Some of us are blessed! And God is there is
guide and keep us.
Please be my friend.
