They are in the novelty rock emporium and there is no room for their bikes so they leave them outside and Hodges gets outraged because they aren't immobilised. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=628#post-5200 Fri, 09 Apr 2010 14:53:14 +0000 chdot 5200@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>"Actually it's worth it just for Wilson."</p> <p>Did he cycle?</p> <p>Think Hodges did. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=628#post-5194 Fri, 09 Apr 2010 14:19:37 +0000 wee folding bike 5194@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Jones can get annoying but it's worth watching for the dynamic between Mainwaring and Wilson.</p> <p>Actually it's worth it just for Wilson. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=628#post-5178 Fri, 09 Apr 2010 12:34:38 +0000 Kirst 5178@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I love Yes Minister and Fawlty Towers but I'd rather stick pins in my eyes than watch Dad's Army. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=628#post-5153 Thu, 08 Apr 2010 21:37:42 +0000 wee folding bike 5153@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>More a super hero thing.</p> <p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxfzm9dfqBw">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxfzm9dfqBw</a> </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=628#post-5151 Thu, 08 Apr 2010 21:09:08 +0000 chdot 5151@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>"If you need him he will appear"</p> <p>Is that by magic or is a fee involved? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=628#post-5150 Thu, 08 Apr 2010 21:06:51 +0000 wee folding bike 5150@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>No, Michael Palin is better for that kind of thing.

Thought the Dad's Army episode with Fraser copunting his money was on last Saturday (but fecking Guardian was giving out English Telly in Scotland again). </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=628#post-5139 Thu, 08 Apr 2010 16:32:51 +0000 wee folding bike 5139@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Yes, there is a bit in Yes Minister about that. Sir Humphrey accepted that women are not a minority but have some of the same characteristics. I haven't got to that episode yet. I took a side trip into Fawlty Towers this week because I got a copy with John Cleese commentating. I'll be back onto Yes Minister soon. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=628#post-5125 Thu, 08 Apr 2010 13:36:20 +0000 SRD 5125@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I really don't think Lothian and Borders is concerned with Caster Semenya. </p> <p>And to be fair, they don't explicitly include gender as a category of a minority, but it is that use of 'gender' to mean 'women' lumped in with 'minorities' that annoys me. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=628#post-5124 Thu, 08 Apr 2010 13:09:29 +0000 wee folding bike 5124@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>These days gender is more complex than the two commonest options. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=628#post-5114 Thu, 08 Apr 2010 10:05:22 +0000 SRD 5114@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Someone needs to point out that gender should not be included under 'minorities' unless they are talking about men (who are usually a minority in average populations). </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=628#post-5112 Thu, 08 Apr 2010 09:30:05 +0000 wee folding bike 5112@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Yes, I cycle religiously.</p> <p>That is of course stolen from a sign on Alistair Gow's door. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=628#post-5106 Wed, 07 Apr 2010 22:47:14 +0000 chdot 5106@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>"Known as Lay Diversity Advisers, the volunteers will give advice on equalities and diversity with an emphasis on how the police relate to minority communities.</p> <p>The scheme covers six strands - race, gender, age, faith, sexual orientation and disability."</p> <p>Not cyclists then...</p> <p><a href="http://www.edinburgh.gov.uk/CEC/Corporate_Services/Corporate_Communications/Press_Releases/NewsRelease.jsp?ID=4620" rel="nofollow">http://www.edinburgh.gov.uk/CEC/Corporate_Services/Corporate_Communications/Press_Releases/NewsRelease.jsp?ID=4620</a> </p>
