Here we go, 25 minutes until Eurovision 2015 kicks off in Austria.

Get the drinks in, it's going to be a long one!

I have a brilliant spreadsheet my friend sent me, it was originally in German I think but basically you score each country for various things (including key change and wind machine). Should be a fun addition to tonight's final.

We have got a very non-European Chinese takeaway and very European ales!

I had a cheese and mango pickle sandwich. In my defence the cheese was Emmenthall.

Signing in and ready for action

Raahh · 23/05/2015 19:54

That isn't very Albanian. Or Icelandic.

There are too many threads! I am sticking with this one. Go Norway! I need to win this draw.

No party food here, just a massive bottle of water :(

Raahh · 23/05/2015 20:01

Here we go!!!!

(last year I tried to make flags with emoticons- they didn't work too wellGrin)

toldmywrath · 23/05/2015 20:01

Cup of tea & home made cake here! I wonder if Graeme got his luggage in time (BA didn't send it on with him)

dillite · 23/05/2015 20:02

British water. Britain is in Europe, so it is European.

Raahh · 23/05/2015 20:02

I have just noticed this goes on til 11.30 this year- is it because it usually overruns, because I'm sure it hasn't been that late before.

toldmywrath · 23/05/2015 20:02

dillite why don't you turn off the TV sound & listen to the brilliant Ken Bruce on Radio 2?

alteredimages · 23/05/2015 20:03

Checking in. I am watching the coverage on France 2 and already feeling sorry for Lisa Angell. They have shown everything from her signing the contract with Sony France to a party at the Austrian Embassy in Paris and everyone talking about how great she is and how she is going to do really well. She was obviously revelling in the attention. It's going to be a hard come down when she comes near to last. Sad She seems quite nice but the song is the most boring song I have ever heard.

It is weird watching coverage where they play it completely straight.

I have Montenegro in the draw, so no great hopes there either I don't think.

SecretNutellaFix · 23/05/2015 20:03

Hi everyone.

I'm looking forward to this.

ilovesooty · 23/05/2015 20:03

Longest concert ever this year.

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 23/05/2015 20:03

Vienna is very gorgeous.

How many countries are in the final?

dillite · 23/05/2015 20:04

I don't have a radio. And it would be really weird. I will just keep on raging about Norton on here. And try my hardest not to throw a shoe at the TV.

ilovesooty · 23/05/2015 20:04

France are drawn second. Kiss of death.
