Eurovision? Always was and always will be a complete and utter waste of time and space. Pile of shite and no mistake, marginally less irritating than reality shows and x-factor type "talent" shows (why they call them talent shows is beyond me, most of the clowns on these shows are completely devoid of any).

Is anyone else planning to celebrate this spectacle of high camp with a Eurovision party or is it just me?


I need advice on Eastern European treats (I like to have representative food and drink from every country in the competition but am at a loss for ukraine for instance)


am I actually the world's biggest loser?

Me, obviously.

Though I feel selecting 'Andy the bin man' was a poor move. He's like Lighthouse Family but without the rock-and-roll wow factor. And his song is akin to drinking lukewarm tea at Gatwick after your flight's been delayed.


We should have gone with Simona Wotsit. She would have been in with a half-decent chance.

> am I actually the world's biggest loser?



Not at all RosieH - this is the first year in a long time I have not hosted a Eurovision party.... usually ours included a shrine to Terry Wogan and terrible drinking games where everyone gets a country to represent and top marks would mean downing a drink ... the result being some terrible drunken memories ....


Great fun though!

    • Totally agree regarding not supporting chains. Gail’s was fine but last time I went in Feb this year, actually walked out Fayetteville looking at menu and waiting 15 minutes to even get glass of water and not busy at all. Staff gone down hill - sooner it goes the better… Always prefer to support non chains - so many lovely places with good food to choose from with pleasant staff who know about customer service and sadly, non English which says a lot for our culture, pubs are also becoming abit of a hit and miss affair but maybe just unlucky. At the end of the day all about the chef. Still abit unclear where new place is located - is it down the road from Goose Green where parade of shops are before Peckham Rye?  
    • Surely only where the local businesses offer clear advantages, otherwise you are rewarding what should be failure. I want to be served by a better bakery than Gail's, not a worse but local independent one. Certainly give a local independent some time to get the offer right, but don't buy goods which are worse and or more expensive just because the outlet isn't a chain. 
    • Let’s just boycott all chains in favour of local businesses.  Places like Gail’s popping up everywhere has a very damaging impact on small businesses. It’s just the same as the new empanadas place but on a bigger scale. I’ll say it a million times more, we hold the power with our choices. Let’s use our power to look after ourselves and our environment (which includes small local family businesses). And yes, I also love Chacarero.
