It's from the film you recently said was your favourite.

Here’s another one that should be very gettable from two words:

“Zuzu’s petals!”

The pronunciation of "cuckoo" in that clip is, to me, quite distinctive.

Things change, Harold. Don't get nostalgic. Look to the future. You realize you're 35 minutes away from Europe? Great potential. I live in a new country, and I respect the past, but I always keep my eye on the future.

That’s surely “The Long Good Friday”, recently confirmed in a poll by The Londonist as the greatest London film evvah.

Early? Let it Bleed was their 8th album! But I suppose it's relative. I forget they didn't actually disband after Exile, I just like to think they did.

I was offered a ticket to see the Stones at Roundhay Park, 1985 ?

I turned it down. The reason ? "They're past it."

Roll on a number of decades and I finally got to see them at Twickenham with the kids about five years ago.

I was offered face value tickets to a Stones gig at Earl's Court, about 2 days before the gig in 1975.
Probably one of the best gigs I have ever attended.
