No Pussy Galores or Allotta Faginas, but Bond jokes that Her Majesty's Accountant's covername is Ms. Broadchest. We see the advent of the famous martini as it is simultaneously updated and then skewered ("Vodka martini." "Shaken or stirred, sir?" "Do I look like I give a damn?").

Its been years since Ive read a Bond book, but I think Ian Flemming included those outrageous names later in the series. Also if I remember correctly Bond always drank his martinis STIRRED, not shaken. Nobody drank shaken martinis in the 60's, it was 100% stirred, the way gentlemen prefer it. The shaken line was a movie addition.
