The Armenian song sounded like Pink Floyd's High Hopes.
Oh, and thanks for the points for Switzerland, GB!

Yes, and they don't vote for Switzerland because eating Toblerone hurts the palate.

George you are the go to man for insight - particularly on political and socio-ideological issues. Plus you do like a woman with a nice set of headlamps.

Yes, and they don't vote for Switzerland because shoving Toblerone up his bot hurts the pope.
You Swiss are odd/
"Holy shit!!!"
Russell Brand scrubbed up well though.

I think it's partly due to our songs being utter bollocks every year
You postulate then state as fact. Make your mind up! Now is the time.
Ha! I couldn't give two hoots
I ain't watched this crap since Buck's Fizz won it
Not even heard our entry for this year
I'm willing to place a small wager that it is total rubbish though
Fifty quid right here right now!.?
I have taken you at your word just listened to it myself for the first time. You can put my winnings in a charity box of your choice although must be a registered one.
This will be the UK entry next year -
After all, a novelty beard won it this year.
So because of the time difference the broadcast of the final does not air until Sunday night in Australia, however in reality the final happens in the very early hours of Sunday morning and so the winner is announced in time for Sunday breakfast news programmes here.
This morning I got a message from someone telling me that they had just seen the winner on the news and it pleased them but didn't name the winner. Thing is that they don't watch it all so It really narrowed it down to about three countries for me. The most annoying thing is they knew I wanted to wait until it was broadcast here.
And the only mention in the papers here is that we have a good chance.
