THe dad is great. He has heart attack type episode at his used car lot when his son offers some shit fdor brains students a refund</p> <p>when he comes round at home in bed he is still muttering the same phrase over and over in a confused and alarmed state "Refund, refund.,refunsd.."</p> <p>The mum and dad who seem late 40s conceive a child during the movie. For further real life info of a parallel nature amongst our shared cohort of old school friends I will PM the wee folding one. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=1555#post-15128 Fri, 22 Oct 2010 19:09:47 +0000 wee folding bike 15128@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>It's on my Amazon Wish List.

Good coming of age and university versus townie storylines - the Cinzano racing team, heroes have feet of clay and people you think have feet of clay can be heroes too. All cycling scenes shot really well, including overtaking a juggernaut at 60 Kph. Bizarre single speed bicycle version of the Indy 500 at the end. I must send it back so that someone else can get it out (I might have Love Film's only copy) </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=1555#post-15085 Fri, 22 Oct 2010 11:04:25 +0000 gembo 15085@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I made the bit up about bikes but they are catching on... </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=1555#post-15026 Wed, 20 Oct 2010 14:41:23 +0000 wee folding bike 15026@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Dang. I was going to use the Pashley and lock it up nearby (but not right outside). If the man himself likes bikes I might just take a Brompton in with me as usual. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=1555#post-14991 Wed, 20 Oct 2010 09:54:13 +0000 gembo 14991@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>32 times Candace Marie.</p> <p>I saw Bleak Moments at GFT, it was Bleak but has stayed with me. Mike Leigh was not present - doctor's son from Salford, very keen on cycling [one of these statements may not be true] I always suspect librarians now of drinking a bottle of sherry a night. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=1555#post-14968 Tue, 19 Oct 2010 20:04:28 +0000 wee folding bike 14968@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Hmmmmmm... permission to go to see "Another Year" with a personal appearance by Mike Leigh at the GFT on Monday?</p> <p>Not taking any kids or the memsahib, She doesn't even like "Nuts in May". </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=1555#post-14966 Tue, 19 Oct 2010 19:56:31 +0000 gembo 14966@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>In Despicable Me (a french cartoon for kids and their parents, but not exclusively this demog] the hero/villain nearly gets away with describing the orphanage owner as having a face like a mule. He says it in spanish whilst first checking she can't speak spanish. Course now I am not sure what fox-like is in Spanish</p> <p>Link to bikes- family of 5 (The Gembos) in Dominion today courtesy of free tickets coz we logged our cycling earlier in the month, all lounging in the sofa cinema, of Morningside, no plebians at all, frothy cappucinos to stop the adults falling asleep on the sofas whilst watching the film.
