Sorry, don't care. But my boss does. He finds it amusing. Chatting with Eurovision fans from other countries... a different planet, isn't it?

No, sorry, don't care. I think the last time I even noticed that it was on was when Bucks Fizz won - not that I watched it but you couldn't avoid their nauseating act after that

confession time:
I listen to BBC Radio mainly, or watch cable.
The only time I tune in to terrestrial TV is of a Friday for Late Review, sometimes 'Nate Ross (lucky bastard) or Later with that Lahndahn Git who plays a bit of the 'old joanna'

Probably something similar to me watching Ray Mears. As far as I'm concerned, 99% of human history has been an attempt to get as far away from nature as possible; why the f**k I should enjoy a bloke being such a boy-scout is beyond me. But there you go

Poor girl, she must be really hungry if she needs to get her butties out in the middle of a performance
LMFAO.
Oh no. I've got the giggles and they're all looking at me now thinking 'I don't remember that Java book being that entertaining...'

That's actually a bloody good question. I have a similar problem with golf and snooker.

snooker i havent a problem with.golf,however,is phenomenally tedious to watch (IMHO) and unlikely to appeal to me to learn to play,even if i should suddenly find myself with s**t-loads of cash and no idea how to spend it.in the words of "billy conolly"(as impersonated by that bloke off of deadringers):-"golf's just long-distance snooker for wankers".

a friend describes:
Switzerland (Foxy Estonian rock chicks in white jump suits using Sisters of Mercy Mk III guitar sounds)
is this accurate
i do hope so

I accidentally (honest) turned to bbc3 last night when they were recapping all the semifinalists and I kinda remember these people. I do remember the white suits, and I also remember the fact that they were bussed in from Croatia or somewhere like that. Curiously the Sisters never came to mind...
(btw, Ireland were awful and are out. What will St Terry say?)

it's called 'the shadows are my destiny'. a few beers and I’ll be right up for goth dancing to the euro vision thing
Hell, I’ll even be wearing black. As part of my Glazer protest

Not that I know that much, but I do reckon that The Shadows were one of the few bands that were better sans the so-called frontman.

could you two ladies be referring to 'The Rebel Trouser' aka Riff Piltchard?
Posted: 20 May 2005, 21:51
by Mrs. Snowey
Yup.
He was quite good in The Young Ones I guess.
But if someone mentions how great he was at brightening up Wimbledon that year (tho' I forget which year) I'll do something violent
BTW didn't someone once point out the startling resemblance between Mr. Pilchard and
?

Well, excuse me Mr Jack, that was one of the most defining moments in pop history.
