Darn can't make it my Aston-Martin DB-5 is in the shop. Seems the damn machine guns go off at the most inopportune times.
Don't think I'd be able to walk ten yards with that holstered without whipping it out, spinning'round on the spot and striking a pose - I mean taking aim...
Would definitely add the finishing touch to my black tie for the office Christmas party too!
