EUROVISION

[Thomcat]

Come on, who's watching and what is this rock nightmare on now??!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

tell me who wins. going downstairs as dd is having another nightmare. poor kid!

Hiya kalex, no I didn't get your email, I was wondering what had happened to you! Hope you are ok - my email address hasn't changed, has yours? If yours is still the same I will email you now. Let me know

Sansouci - nightmare not about Eurovision I hope!

Think Greece have won!

Got it kalex - you can get it deleted now.

Do you want me to call now or tomorrow?

Now please

So Greece won - YAWN - they were no better than many of the others IMO.

Now someone please tell me why I wasted my evening watching it....

Sorry to everyone else

Oh dearie me. 18 points! Think I will retire to bed and cry my sorry self to sleep.

miaou, so that we could bitch on here!

Serenity we're celebrating too! DS2 has already asked if we can get tickets to go next year.

used to watch avidly for a laugh - now its not even funny.

Both Terry and me spotted that the last 4 were UK, France, Germany and Spain - that tells you something.

Anyway - it was the Hit Me Baby final which wasn't much better - who on earth voted for Shakey?

We've been discussing going to Athens for the weekend in my greek class, I wonder if I could persuade them to do it for the Eurovision weekend?

It's cultural y'know!

I fookin loved the Ukraine entry. I'm sorry, but if someone with a German accent shouts ''Eine, zwei, drei - danzen!'' at me, I just have to obey... dh and I have been singing it all day today too.

I really adored the Bulgarian entry - if that came on in a club I'd be dancing. Gorgeous....! I'm gutted these two were so overlooked

In fact I love it so much I'm sharing it with you..

Did anyone else find the political scoring thing a bit much? I know it has always been like that - Andorra giving Spain 12 points every year and so on, but it seemed to me that it was purely driven by allegiances.

Or am I taking it all far far too seriously?

totally so.

Really everyone, if you didn't see the EuroSC, do have a listen to this song - Bulgaria was robbbed!!

beautiful song here

Midway through a rant about it, dh and I realised that it would be far more interesting if we knew anything whatsoever about half the countries in Eastern Europe/Soviet Bloc.

It just blends into a morass of "oh thems"

it's a joke

don't know why we still take part.

otoh our song was dire

did you notice the bottom countries were all western european apart from Lithuania

I did wartyhog. Poor Lithunia - their song must have been so crap!
