Genuinely loved all of them - the books are unreadable, but the movies are really absorbing. Even enjoyed The Hobbit trilogy (the first one in ultra high-frame rate 3D is probably the best presentation of a movie I've seen as well).

You arrived from the future in a time-bubble, and demanded that some dudes gave you their clothes, boots and a motorcycle, didn't you...?

Ah! The Curlers! I once went into the public bar, and there was a bloke standing by the bar, juggling an adze... He definitely got space. They used to do an awful basic lunch upstairs that was something like 30p, or you could have a 50p one, which really wasn't better, but there was more of it...

I've not read it in years, but the second I saw "Denis O. Smith", I thought, "Oh, he's the 'Purple Hand' man!", which is a fabulous apocryphal Holmes!

I used to visit the bit at New Kilpatrick cemetery in Bearsden, and standing on the northern side used to make me feel like Asterix the McGaul...
