Eurovision 2018: The year of clothes-with-a-train and interpretive dance

[OublietteBravo]

The first thread is almost full, so here is a new one.

Oooh I half a mini bottle of black balsalm from riga in the cupboard still. Its 'an acquired taste'.

DH has fallen asleep already, after 1 beer.... I've not cracked open the alcohol yet.

Remember Terry Wogan's advice to Graham Norton. "Don't have a drink until song nine".
SONG NINE.

I think I am at the point of saying as long as we don't come last. And I like our song. Best in a few years.

I have half a bottle of Aussie plonk and some pains au chocolat.

THank you, @unimaginative! I have nachos & eating them already, explaining it to DS!

Don't forget your subtitles (for those of you who like them on for Eurovision).

Dilute that Balzam, Pebbles

I like how Russia gives low scores to any country that dares to show a bit of LGBT activity

I have to have subtitles on all the time anyway! So happy I'm watching alone as this seems to annoy everyone

Yes. Subtitles are a must.

I have some pain au chocolat and croissants in the freezer. Maybe I’ll chuck some in the oven during the interval.

I am looking forward to tonight

I really like SuRie song

I have been listening to Graham's Saturday morning radio 2 show over last few months, and so have been hearing it being played

I think it is really catchy and easy to sing along to, well I do anyway

It's weird, I'm not a huge fan of Graham Norton EXCEPT during Eurovision..

Sneaky I watch everything with subtitles too! Gets on dh's nerves. But otherwise I can't hear things over the constant talking of the dc.

It's become a habit now.

We were driving on a long journey a few moths ago and so were listening on Saturday morning

Now I listen every week, and love it

Very excited about tonight

I like to have subtitles on if I’m watching on the iPad because the sound is crap.

Unimaginative just you watching tonight? Can't you bribe DC?

Oh can I join in?

Im on my own this evening but we usually have a game of something to eat or drink for each country, sometimes Ireland can be backed up with Russia Estonia and whoever, so Guinness, Vodka some awful Tallin speciality drink and whatever else goes..... all great fun.

But only heard the UK entry, I like to just hear them as we go along.

Hello! Just putting my towel on a sun lounger - back in 15 minutes

Just watching BBC2 doing TOTP for Eurovision Gina G song so catchy

I've been lurking on these threads so far but wanted to say hello. I've converted DD1 to the joys of Eurovision so we've got snacks lined up. We're cheering for Moldova mainly because we used to live there.

@SneakyGremlins: It’s just me. DS1 has online gaming planned with his friends apparently and DS2 is going to bed. He’s got a swimming team trial tomorrow morning so he probably shouldn’t stay up.

I maintain Moldova were fucking robbed last year

DS2 would totally be up for it, I think. If only ex were going out tonight!

I'm not sure what Moldova would do if they actually won! I can't think of any venues big enough to hold it in.

Oh who gives a fuck about the royal wedding

Here we go...!!
