They must have moved.  Used to have these mahogany panelled offices in Perth city centre.

As an aside, many years ago I did a tour of Tayside based distilleries in an official Council capacity, got free bottles of of top brand whiskies at every one.  Passed them all on to the local community centre for fund raising - at least I hope that's what they were used for.

 

1998 moved to Harrow with a lost of 150 jobs.

Quote

In 1985, Bell’s was bought by Guinness, which itself then bought DCL and then merged with IDV to form Diageo. Bell’s base at Cherrybank was, briefly, the firm’s UK sales and marketing headquarters, but in 1998 the decision was taken to transfer the function to Harlow, with the loss of 150 jobs.

All that was left of Bell’s was the sports centre and the garden containing the Bell's National Heather Collection which had surrounded the offices. It closed in 2008.

The correct answer is of course The Spy Who Loved Me
 

All correct answers, along with Casino Royale (Daniel Craig version), The Living Daylights, and OHMSS.

San Jose earthquakes v Houston. Beasly and sendaros were playing for the earthquakes.

Quite the experience, quality of football not very good.

 

Cool. Nice looking ground. What's the capacity and what was the attendance?

Think the capacity is about 20k, I'd say there were 12/13k there (near the end of the season, they hadn't been doing very well) horseshoe shaped stadium with a bar that runs one entire end with a massive jumbotron screen above it.

 

There were loads of parents with kids, and couples on date night, not a lot of atmosphere. Some people not even watching the game, just chatting, drinks and food very expensive, 3 philly steak sandwiches cost me $42 with drinks and crisps, 2 large cans of Corona $24 [emoji15]
