He knew how to make a deal, and often made very good ones, he talked about them quite often. Remember The Avengers? That was around the same time.

    "Hello" Karen 👋 In answer to your question, it is a house in Mayfair, London 🇬🇧 Very expensive! Being high-end residental properties, with upmarket shops and restaurants and large hotels. HENCE in the board game of "Monopoly" if you bought the 2 properties (on the board) of Mayfair and Park Lane, you could very easily win the game, with the rent paid to you if those you were playing the game with, landed on that property. So it is (or was) a very expensive place to live. So when Tony Curtis sold it (later) he made alot of money. Much more than if he'd been paid a salary.

    MR SEAN, I do very occasionally differ from your views but before now I have never had to scold you.Today, was the 23rd of April - and if you are not interested in the fact that all other countries in the world seem to have a public holidy on their Patron Saint's day - England doesn't -- then you should be. You should be lauding the National Day. However, just as scold-worthy is the fact that you didn'r mention it was Shakespeare's Birthday. You tell us all how "On This Day" some long forgotten film star was born - but you forget Shakespeare? I shall expect an apology. Shakespeare has enriched the world just as much as that inventor of contact lenses you told us about - a man who invented contact lenses which anyway would have been invented by someone else had he not done it first.
