You’ll get the link in a minute, it was my husband’s idea to include this song, I’m always up for a sing-a-long with the Manics. Motorcycle Emptiness is the best for singing along to though, you feel that you can get it right, but it is actually impossible. I digress.
Today I’m singing the praises of the libraries here in Edinburgh . We are regular visitors and one of my favourite things to do if I’m needing inspiration is to open my Edinburgh Libraries account and make a huge list of books to reserve. And, as if by magic, they are usually at my local library within a week , pretty efficient if you ask me. The staff are super helpful too, my only gripe is that they’ve changed the opening hours so it’s harder to nip along in the evenings
The range of kids’ books is amazing for every age and stage not to mention free dvd hire for children and a nominal fee for the others. Teenboy was introduced to Bill Forsyth’s film Gregory’s Girl last week when I spotted it in the racks, I’m not sure what he thought of it but I absolutely loved seeing it again, it is a classic. If you’ve never seen it then watch it, it’s hilarious. Let me know what you think is the best bit. As some of you know, I can recite copious lines from it if I’m in the mood. (skip to 24 seconds)
Next on my list for teenboy is Local Hero, another Bill Forsyth film
Here’s my most recent pile of reserved books, there are usually a couple of duff books but, hey, that’s ok because it’s free!
That’s my public information work done for the day.
Wishing you all a great weekend, what’s your all time favourite film? Recommendations welcome in the comments section. x
