The castle isn't quite as close to the Forth and the bridge is red" I only wish professional film reviews were as pithy. wee folding bike on "The public thinks Cyclist are cool and normal, apparently" http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=1323#post-12307 Thu, 02 Sep 2010 12:45:30 +0000 wee folding bike 12307@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ They weren't wearing baseball caps but they were wearing something there. Other than that you're on the money. spitfire on "The public thinks Cyclist are cool and normal, apparently" http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=1323#post-12299 Thu, 02 Sep 2010 11:43:03 +0000 spitfire 12299@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ I love the Express, it gives me everything I need to know And now I know I should be sitting here reading an internet forum at work... uh-oh LaidBack on "The public thinks Cyclist are cool and normal, apparently" http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=1323#post-12295 Thu, 02 Sep 2010 11:35:10 +0000 LaidBack 12295@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ Think Irene and I will go and see at Cameo. Two guys on Edinburgh Rd kept going through red lights every time I got close to catching them then turned round at the Parade. They'd be on full suspension MTBs and wearing baseball caps I expect? Or am I stereotyping too much? wee folding bike on "The public thinks Cyclist are cool and normal, apparently" http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=1323#post-12261 Wed, 01 Sep 2010 22:07:30 +0000 wee folding bike 12261@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ Some anachronisms, a '60s chip shop wouldn't have deep fried Mars bar. The castle isn't quite as close to the Forth and the bridge is red. The joke about "Blair & Brown" pawnbrokers isn't going to make as much sense in 20 years time. The Goya painting joke in Dr No doesn't really work anymore. I suspect it wasn't all hand drawn because the busses on Prince's St had internal lights on and the geometry was correct as they moved along the road. There was also a swooping shot above Arthur's Seat which looked computer generated. I liked how they made a cartoon character move like Tati, particularly when he though he had lost the rabbit for good. Worth a look and it gave me an excuse to take a bike out for a wee spin into town.

Nobody said anything about it so they seem to think taking your bike to the pictures is not worthy of comment. I've been taking it there for years and I've never had a negative reaction. kaputnik on "The public thinks Cyclist are cool and normal, apparently" http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=1323#post-12252 Wed, 01 Sep 2010 18:35:09 +0000 kaputnik 12252@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ hahaha. That's brilliant. I'm off to listen to the Smiths in my room. With the curtains closed. And put some eyeliner on* *or perhaps I'm off to do what a normal person does around 630PM and eat a spot of dinner then meet a friend for a pint. Perhaps. steveo on "The public thinks Cyclist are cool and normal, apparently" http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=1323#post-12249 Wed, 01 Sep 2010 17:58:36 +0000 steveo 12249@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ The Express apparently took the opposite from the PR.
