Shezza is back

Simon Mayo|07:38 UK time, Tuesday, 13 July 2010

Last night, in the company of son1, I went to see the new Christopher Nolan film Inception starring Leonardo Di Caprio at one of those IMAX cinemas. Largest screen in Europe-it's a real monster. To say the film is mind-blowing is an understatement. You have to work quite hard at times to remember what's happening but boy is it worth it. Di Caprio plays a man who invades your dreams and steals or plants ideas. As a consequence I was expecting, maybe hoping, to have a night full of the most extraordinary dreams but had precisely zilch. 4 hours of oblivion and that was it. Need to go again anyway, this time with cheese.

Musical accompaniment for this blog is '100 Miles From Memphis' the new album from Sheryl Crow who is in today after 6. Enjoyed Sheryl's music since "Tuesday Night Music Club" and you'll have heard a preview of what's to come with the single "Summer Day". Lots of good tunes to choose from here and it's also Radio 2's album of the week this week.

And let's do sports day on the music today. Some schools aren't allowed to call it that any more in case it's too well, sporty. But let's hear it for the tug of war, the egg and spoon race, the sack race and the devil's own parents race. Oh, and while we're at it, overly anxious and competitive parents as well. Enough to be going on with I hope.

See you for the relay at 5.05.
