I think I saw a headline somewhere that Bear is out of Geneva and possibly the French because of an injury. Don't know what but nooooo!!
My response was...."why does everyone get injured but the fucking Serb?!!
DHjust laughed Grin

I’m at my Mums and my sister is making me watch Eurovision - the banana eating wolves Shock - I think I’m going mad Grin

Welcome to the dark side Fizzy Grin

Grin Spain’s performance was semi pornographic Shock

JaneJeffer · 14/05/2022 21:06

I remember when Bucks Fizz pulling off their skirts to reveal shorter skirts was shocking!

Djok won Angry

Fizzy Spain was a bit of an outlier this year- most acts have really covered up Grin

Norway were brilliant.

Shame about Casper.

All hope pinned on Stef now. No pressure.

(lots of pressure)

I’m getting confused about whether we’re talking about tennis or Eurovision Grin

I don’t like Serbia - what’s with all the hand washing - weird!

Fizzywinegum · 14/05/2022 23:40

DH has suddenly become completely over-invested in Eurovision - could UK win? Shock

kazzaD66 · 15/05/2022 10:26

Happy birthday Sir Andy!CakeFlowers

ChessieFL · 15/05/2022 12:30

Just seen that Elina and Gael Monfils are expecting a baby, which is lovely news.

Raahh · 15/05/2022 12:38

Chessie That is lovely news. Congratulations to them.
I have only just managed to get chance to put the women's final on.
Iga had an early break, but Ons has deuce in this game at 4-2, so could break back.

JaneJeffer · 15/05/2022 12:46

Hard to beat Iga.

Yes! I've just seen that aswell. A baby girl, due in October Smile
I wonder if Stan will gift a Bear

Raahh · 15/05/2022 12:49

Another Eurovision/tennis crossoverGrin- they've started playing the Ukraine's winning song at the end of the set.

Raahh · 15/05/2022 12:52

kazza StanBear definitely needs to get a bear.

I think last year's match was over in the time it's taken for the is one to get to set 2. Despite the one sided scoreline.

JaneJeffer · 15/05/2022 13:04

Poor Ons doesn't know what to do.

OP posts:
Fizzywinegum · 15/05/2022 13:05

I don’t need any more tennis/Eurovision confusion Raahh Grin Although there were certain parallels - Serbia were weird and scary!

congratulations to Elina and Gael - lovely news and happy birthday to Andy Cake - hope he’s recovered from his food poisoning

Hoping that Stef can do the job against Djok later - if only to see what randomness he will write on the camera Grin

JaneJeffer · 15/05/2022 13:06

Raspberry beret maybe? Grin

Raahh · 15/05/2022 13:11

Sorry Fizzy. (Yes, the Serbian woman has the scary stary eyes thing goingon. It was just bizarre. Did quite well, too!).

Poor Ons. Iga is just too good, isnt she. I'm delighted for her, but the women's final in Rome is starting to get a bit one sided, year after year. I think we have to go back to 2017 to the last time it went to 3 sets- and Svitolina won that one.

JaneJeffer · 15/05/2022 13:16

The Serbian song was so weird. Why were they singing about Meghan Markle's hair? Just why?!

OP posts:
Raahh · 15/05/2022 13:21

Ons is fighting back!

Raahh · 15/05/2022 13:22

Jane I have no idea. I think people voted for it because by the time she appeared, they were drunk, and it stuck in the memory. Grin

Raahh · 15/05/2022 13:22

But that was a great point by Iga.

Raahh · 15/05/2022 13:25

I am really pleased that Ons has got to another final though.
