Fleming's 'Bingo Hall Royale" rewritten for pensioners...

"The scent and smoke and sweat of a bingo hall are nauseating at three in the afternoon. Then the soul-erosion produced by high gambling -- a compost of inane chatter and weak tea and a nervous bladder -- becomes unbearable and the senses awake and revolt from it.

"James Bond suddenly knew that he was tired. So he had a nap."
