VILLAGE GREETINGS

Where am I? ...In the Village. Greetings Spy Vibers! I had to fly under the radar during the past month, but I've finally returned to active duty. My return flight arrived last night from a mission to the UK, where I toured many filming locations from The Avengers, The Saint, Randall and Hopkirk (Deceased), The Champions, Poirot, and many other classic British series. One of the highlights was a trip to Portmeirion, where Patrick McGoohan filmed The Prisoner. Fellow fans may understand the surreal feeling I had being in "the Village", given that the location was shrouded in so much mystery within the show's storyline. I have much to report and many images to share, not to mention my appreciation for an amazing network of fellow spy writers and fans who made the whole operation possible. Stay tuned!
