The best time to walk outside
Completely barefoot

Completely barefoot
Across hot embers: faith helps,
as do sweaty soles.

As for sweaty soles
Don't walk on lino, lest you go
Slipping and sliding

"In our seventies" ...
Bond started in '62.
"0070"?
Spoiler: show

ETA1: Note that "007" is pronounced "Null Null Sieben" (four syllables) in German, not "double O seven" (five) like officially sanctioned in English ...
ETA2: Then there's that online jokester's suggestion to stand on your head and say "LOO" ... ;D
