Robbie dreams of going to space. In 1970s Scotland this marks him out almost as much as his eccentric family does. Educated in the ways of the Left, Robbie can't entertain the idea of going into orbit with the capitalist Americans. So he gets a 'teach yourself' Russian book & settles down with Einstein's 'Meaning of Relativity' by his side.
