OLYMPICS
A thread for all things Olympic over the next fortnight.
Opening Ceremony is tomorrow 8pm local time. Directed by Danny Boyle, it's going to be ... strange. With 'The English Countryside' as a theme, it's got ... lots of countryside apparently. Fields, hedgerows, farms and farmyard animals. If nothing else, it'll be different to any other Olympic opening ceremony to date.
I find myself really, really looking forward to the Games. Roll on tomorrow.
