I have been in Europe for 10 years now (Switzerland and London with my bank, and for the last 8 years in Spain with my partner) We have a fun group of friends who have a eurovision party every year and its great fun to watch and make fun of it and vote amongst ourselves. <BR/><BR/>I was happy for the little Russian, I´m am sure he plays for our team.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10667700.post-16241251271062318562008-06-02T01:43:00.000+01:002008-06-02T01:43:00.000+01:00if you like the Eurovision, try Eurobeat The Music...if you like the Eurovision, try <A HREF="http://www.eurobeatthemusical.com/" REL="nofollow">Eurobeat The Musical</A><BR/><BR/>I saw it at the Edinburgh Fringe last year and thought it was brilliant ...close encountershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11493608927198507173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10667700.post-68672980121576934972008-05-29T12:03:00.000+01:002008-05-29T12:03:00.000+01:00I'm with Sir Terry - boycott the cheaters!

I watched some on Saturday - it still ticks all the cheese-on-toast boxes :-)<BR/><BR/>As a side note, I was invited to a EV party where the host dresses up in character, and shows a video in which he sings along to an instrumental track of an obscure EV 'gem'. Might I add, the video is professionally shot and edited, and the host does his own vocals. EV is definitely the Marmite of TV events!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
