My friend Dave is splitting his sides. Apparently, the theme for the Olympic opening will be the British countryside complete with sheep (The real Britain, 13 June). Will they lead or follow the athletes or, as is their wont, simply wander about, chew grass and defecate. What period of our history will feature? If it is pre-industrial revolution, will we be enthralled by be-smocked, forelock-tugging yokels, shire horses and the squire and his lady, completed by a facsimile of a thatched hovel and appropriate agricultural odours and noises? Instead of this bucolic heaven, we could show the world how advanced we are by asking Monsanto to sponsor a display by a real crop sprayer, muck-spreader and giant tractor. The scene would be incomplete without cloned sheep, Bse-addled cows, a farrowing pen and some lame battery hens. No wildlife though. There isn't any. The organisers have done us proud.

I had the pleasure of speaking with Troy Foreman and Jim McLean for the Back to Frank Black’s The Millennium Group Sessions podcast horror edition. This was my first podcast so I was terribly nervous but we had a lot of fun! I’m a huge Millennium fan and I urge you guys to check out their website and participate in their postcard campaign if you like the show. They are trying to bring Millennium to the big screen. Stay tuned for more info on the Screamstress podcast coming to you soon! Image Source: Newscom Post from: Screamstress
