The Israel issue seems separate from the Netherlands issue. People are making a non- political issue political, which is a shame.

On the upside they've saved 5 minutes from Netherlands. 😐

Oh god: what's the person announcing the results of the Dutch jury going to say? They've probably already picked out their Europapa-themed outfit.

Thank you.

Bad planning. Only have one glass of wine left from yesterday's bottle unless I open my limited addition mint Baileys.

There was some suggestion earlier that one of the subjects of the EBU crisis meeting this afternoon was how they will handle things tomorrow if Israel win...
It would be strange if Israel wins seeing as how many people don't even think they should be in the competition.

Think it'll need opening unless you can make a quick dash to the shops?

I awarded the Dutch the Best Dressed Award. The Swedes are definitely somewhat reserved when it comes to that side of Eurovision it has to be said. I would say they were dull and too polite but yeah they were dull and too polite! 😂
(I have broken Wogans rule already. Sorry).

Checking in!

Terry Wogan would approve. Crack the Baileys for song 9.

Yes, that's why it would be a problem. There's a suggestion of organised block voting for them though, so it is a genuine worry.

Don't fancy going out again tbh. It will be okay. I have chocolate.

Rough timetable for tonight

This is Central European Time (so take an hour off the times here)

Oh god, forgot to get chocolate and nibbles 😮

Oh no @Stressybetty !

2hrs left to do.

I was gonna let the mini walruses watch some tonight but I'm not going to bother and dh can put them to bed for 8pm. Then he's already said he's fucking off to the pub so I can watch in peace lol.

I wouldn't be that surprised.

Outside of social media I think there is a lot of support for Israel.

@Appalonia I predict it'll be either the rig a tig dig one or bloke on a spinny circle (the code?)

So Joost did not physically attack anyone as was indicated previously. Just listening to news on Radio 2.

So unfair to disqualify him and leaves a very bad taste.

On the positive side for him he now has nearly a million followers on Instagram!

It's a shame that if Croatia do win it'll always be put down as Because Israel, rather than because their song was great. I'd love to see Estonia do it, mind.

I have hot dogs, Irn Bru and a tub of Rocky Road crispies from M&S. Job done, once I've finished frying onions with Doctor Who 👍

Placemarking for later!

Got snack envy already.

Beer, Crisps and many varieties of Chocolate good to go.

And a huge tub of Dreamies to keep the 😺😺 quiet.

I've got really bad bloody toothache ffs. Even 20% lidocaine isn't touching it. FML. <eyes up brandy.

When the different countries announce the jury votes there probably won't be as much hyberbole as usual about what a great contest it's been.
