I've been to Eurovision parties in the past.


No bias is allowed in the cuisine served - all wine is new world and food tends towards chinese or mexican. Everyone picks out of hats and supports their adopted country with gusto.


With enough Australian shiraz it's bloody good fun. Sober, I would rather bbq my tongue.

I think my best Eurovision memory was when I was 17 or 18 and Gina G was our entrant (she did very badly). We all watched at a mates and got take away curry. Have never done that with mates since, and maybe that should change this year...


I love the way Wogan just gets more p!ssed as the night goes on :)-D

I remember when Eurovision featured singers people had heard of, household names like Cliff, Lulu and 'Shoeless' Sandie Shaw.

These days you wouldn't recognise them unless they went around the place with floodlit signs strapped to their heads saying 'I'm the UK Eurovision entry for 2008'

I think it went downhill when this decimal money was introduced, what with the shilling bits being so fiddly an' all.


Wouldn't give you ten new pence for the lot of them.


Eurovision Song Contest? Bring back national service instead I say.

It's a chance for new talent to shine through, for both performers and songwriters. The talented youngsters from the Italia Conti stage school or as it might be the Brits all giving their all for the honour of representing their country. We can all be proud that our Eurovision entry is truly the 'best of the best'.


"Kid(s) you're going out onto that stage a raw unknown but you're coming back (a) star(s)"


Let's all get behind our entry and give them an almighty push.


I'm getting excited already.

I'll happily give any of the UK's recent entries a push - off a cliff onto a spike.


We need to take a leaf out of the book of our eastern European friends. Get some decent costumes in. Show some flesh. Cross dress. Plunder a best-forgotten musical genre. Have no shame.

Even Ireland, home of the yawnworthy acousto-megaballad has seen the light and plumped for Dustin the Turkey this year.

    • So of you're in a coffee shop and the barista is rude to you you wouldn't complain as long as you had received your coffee? 
    • OP, you've got to relax a bit. Multidrop delivery is a total nightmare and the delivery drivers are woefully underpaid. We as a society all want to order stuff online and for it to be delivered quickly and cheaply. The square gets circled by allowing companies like Evri to have sham contracting arrangements. None of this is your fault OP but the delivery person is just trying to get through their workload as quickly as possible. Delivery is not, historically, an industry with large profit margins. “The only way it can be profitable is if you underpay the person who is the courier, by not treating them as an employee, by not paying taxes, by not paying their insurance, by refusing to give them sick pay or cover them if they have an accident or train them,” says Prof Annabelle Gawer, the director of the Centre of Digital Economy at the University of Surrey. “That is where the ‘savings’ are coming from.” https://www.theguardian.com/society/2022/mar/01/the-hidden-life-of-a-courier-13-hour-days-rude-customers-and-big-dreams
