XI Doctor theme in the Olympics

[Allyn Gibson]

Hopefully God save the Queen is played alot during the medals. Not that I'm a big fan of our national anthem but i'll be good to win some events.

I really like the Spock Pistol's version of "God Save the Queen," especially when the Klingon comes out on stage. They could reform for the Olympics!

Farms? Sorry, I'm not in the UK and don't read up on UK news everyday. What farms?

"London's Olympic Stadium will be transformed into a rural British idyll for the Games opening ceremony on July 27, organisers said on Tuesday."

I guess what the Olympics needed was to be more like Farmville.

The only word in that Sun Daily article that I disagree with is "rural". To me, rural implies a place where only simple farming tools are used and there is a decided lack of technology and basic facilities such as a constant supply of water and electricity, the lack of even a telephone or internet connectivity. Oh no, farms in UK have machinery, highly-trained workers, systems and processes in place that can make some of the Fortune-500 companies blush in embarrassment.

I have lived for nearly 4 years in Greater Manchester and Edinburgh, been to London at least a dozen times and have been up and down the M6 so many times I've lost count. And while I consider the UK to be a farming-centric country with a lovely countryside, the UK is anything but rural.

Oh it will be Daniel Craig. He's going to be hanging from a rope ladder on a helicopter as he flies in.
