I normally have no interest in the Eurovision, but I quite like Ireland's entry this year.

Quite a sweet video too,

I was going to make some daft remark about "My Lovely Horse". But, you're right. It's sweet.

Well, My Lovely Horse had its merits, but I think the sparkly jackets probably outshone the song itself.

Apparently the video is making the Russian broadcast people uncomfortable. Good!

Nice to hear it is making homophobes uncomfortable. It's really demure apart from it being two lads. Maybe it's the pub they don't like

Of all the things that Russians have a problem with other people doing, I don't think having a drink is one.

It makes Dublin look really cute too, I remember when Temple Bar was run down and a bit rough. CIE were going to knock it all down to make a big bus depot. I have happy memories of The Temple Bar though, DH's friend's brother bought it when it was very run down and took out all the formica and pleather and refitted it with woodwork and benches reclaimed from a church.

Of all the things that Russians have a problem with other people doing, I don't think having a drink is one.

I'm guessing that's a joke

Amazing to see nobody trying to steal a bike there outside the Costa.

I don't think the song will make it out of the semi finals. It's a bit dull too sweet.

We need to start channeling the spirit of Moldova.
