I Love My Bike
by Simon Mole
Nobody forgets the thrill of riding a bike for the first time, even if it can feel like an uphill battle to begin with. Join acclaimed children’s author Simon Mole to celebrate that excitement, or start the quest towards it.
This 45 minute event for 4 - 7 yr olds begins with a performance of Simon’s brand new picturebook, followed by some fun (and quite silly) games - spin the word wheel and take part in the pedal power challenge to unlock your creative powers!
If your little word wizard doesn’t need stabilisers we can shift gears quickly to introduce some mega metaphors and super similes. We promise it’ll be wheely good, even if you’re over-tyred…
I Love My Bike is illustrated by Sam Usher & published by Frances Lincoln (Quarto) 2021

Another Round (12A)
Dir: Thomas Vinterberg 2020 | 117 mins
(Danish with English subtitles)
There is an obscure philosophical theory that humans should have been born with a small amount of alcohol in our blood; that modest inebriation opens our minds to the world around us, diminishing problems and increasing creativity. Intrigued, Martin (Mads Mikkelsen) and three of his friends, all weary high school teachers, embark on a risky experiment to maintain a constant level of intoxication throughout the workday.
Initial results are positive, but as the units are knocked back and stakes are raised, it becomes increasingly clear that some bold acts carry severe consequences.
Winner of Best International Feature at this year's Academy Awards.
'The performance of a lifetime from Mads Mikkelsen' ★★★★★ Mark Kermode, The Guardian

Having hit 60 (but still a year younger than Madonna), Jenny Eclair AKA ‘The Face of Vagisan’ confronts a new decade of decrepitude.
Now that it takes 20 minutes of scrolling down to find her DOB when she’s filling in forms online, should she celebrate or crawl into a hole? What will her 60’s hold for this 1960’s babe and is it a legal requirement to buy Nordic walking poles?
