    After a reply I posted this morning offering my opinion on volcanos, based solely on the 1997 film Dante's Peak, starring Pierce Brosnan. I wondered whether others have a working knowledge of something, based solely on a fictional film they've watched?

    Denzel Washington in the film Flight obviously taught me that you can fly a commercial plane upside down.

    "Breaking Away" taught me not to trust Italian cyclists.

    I've yet to meet one mind.

    Warriors , if you get into trouble on a night out don’t use public transport to get home , take a taxi . Don’t sit down next to a loan woman sat on a park bench late at night .

    I never got round to doing it for a living but it taught me the value of putting the curtains on whenever I wanted a bit of me time.

    Sorry, too much information?

    Lock Stock And Two Smoking Barrels. Rory Breaker was full of good advice. Especially about not drinking sour milk.
