I am happy to report that I have never seen any of the Eurovision contest. Ever. With a bit of luck, I'll keep my perfect record.

Why you ask? Two words: pole dancing.

Or, in three words: Dustin the Turkey.

Jeepers.

I thought everyone in Oz watched Eurovision and drank copiously?

Well, everyone in Oz except everyone I work with and you.

Seriously, google the Russian babouskas and see if they're on YouTube. I'm too scared to google in case I find out the results, but you obviously don't care about that. :)

Sorry mate, I only know one person who ever watches Eurovision (except you) and he's Greek (they never win) and he never admits to watching it.

And those whacky Russians. Who knew that traditional Russian music was disco?

Ahhhhhh, Eurovision. Three nights of perfect camp, oiled bodies, flamethrowers, water features, drag queen costumes, kitch, and the odd old fart who should have retired years ago singing a ballad that might have won in the 1950s (UK... I'm looking at you :)

Occasionally there's a good song too! (I'm still gutted that Nina from Serbia didn't win last year because she was AWESOME).

Check out Nina singing Caroban from last year - I wanted her to win sooooo badly! (she didn't) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-CWvXKxjCs8

I soooooooooo can't wait for tonight! :D
I only heard of the Russians so far but they are supposed to be... unique.*lol*

So it's tonight with you? For some reason I thought it had already happened and you already knew who won - hence my no spoilers plea! Mind you, we only get the second semi tonight and then the final tomorrow night, so you're still ahead of us.

Russia is awesome. Look out for them in the final. :)

*listening to Germany's winner from a couple of years back - Lena and Satellite - brilliant song!*

Yup. It's going to air in I think 4.5 hours. Yay.
And bohooooo for it being aired later for you. But I won't tell a thing, big promise.
*sits back and waits for fun to begin*
