eurovision
I voted.
I've never voted for anything on television before, but voting for UKs awesome entry in eurovision this year was well worth my 70rp. Since bbc prime have decided that eurovision doesn't fit their demographic, it took quite some effort to both watch the contest while listening to terry (a eurovision staple).
Fortunately however the time delay created by watching swiss tv and listening to internet radio meant we could appreciate both the swiss commentators cynical and terry's sardonic comments.
It's waiting time now - the half time show is on. Britain are predicted to come 24th - that's flat last. Well at least they did better than DJ Bobo.

Even though they should probably rename it the eastern european song contest, I still love it.
So - the swiss vote - will my money count?!
No, of course not. But it's nice to see that turkey got a strong swiss vote. Can't imagine why.

Gerettet as the swiss commentator put it. Good old ireland, we're not even last anymore!
Wow, before I even managed to post the comment we got a further 12, nay max points from Malta!
Didn't we used to own them?

Before their votes, sweden felt it important to congratulate finland on beating russia in ice hockey.
Eurovision is awesome.

So the final results are in. Ukraine came second, who to be perfectly honest were my favourite until the UK's entry.
Terry's thought seems to be that there should be 2 eurovisions to avoid the east european "colonisation" as he put it.
Maybe, but only when the western commentators run out of amusing cynicism.
