I have to confess to not covering the world of Harry Palmer as much as I should and I have no excuse other that it’s often hard to get my head around exactly what he’s up to. Which is a terrible excuse as that’s a sign of someone doing good shit.
Here’s a good example. What the hell is he up to here?
You’ll note the launch is at 1.30am on the morning of the 23rd. (That’s tomorrow night.) In a city centre subway.
I can’t quite remember where the subway is on Bristol Street but it’ll be somewhere around here:
Are there two tunnels in that stretch? One that crosses under the Bristol Road near the auto dealer, and another to the north between the domed building and a 2nd-hand record shop on the corner at Bromsgrove Street? The pointer on your map is between the two. Go north/south a few metres and you’ll spot the ramps. You might also note that it’s a couple of roads away from that murder in a derelict building at Essex Street. A bit creepy for 1:30 then.
Is anyone going to this? I’m sorely tempted – but not on my own!
I’m also tempted. Call me if you’re going!
