Was a good song, so congrats Clivia I can see the UK changing the artists from now on, as there has already been talk of it, even though we did better than we have in previous years, I mean humperdink for gods sake get real, I thought molly was a good choice, I guess it just means that we have no friends, and the only saving grace is we beat France lol That's exactly it, we have no friends. The millions we pump into Eurovision each year to ensure that everyone gets to enjoy their flashy lights and expensive backdrops isn't an issue. That we get cnuted off each year for making sure that the world is a better place is an issue, well for me anyway.

I love the UK BrenD and the Uk has many friends world wide - I have lived for many years a very international live - so I know what I am talking about - I have deepest respect for the country of my husband and my choice oh and that was Austria in 1966

You know what this means, folks... Austria last won Eurovision in 1966 if Clivia is correct and I'd expect her to be! What happened in the World Cup final of 1966? BrenD good coincidence come on England We've got more chance of winning the ESC

Wow, this thread has developed a tangent since I left it last night! I am going to do a little housekeeping, my apologies if I upset anyone by doing this . . . but there are words that have been used that could be deemed offensive to some. Might be an idea to take the discussion to PM's if you'd like to continue it.

I wouldn't worry about breaking the rules last night Clivia, my posts were the ones that overstepped the mark. For that I apologise to anyone who might have been offended by my comments.

Well my DF were there and they didn't even tell me the two of them had swanned off to Denmark for the weekend because they are always going away together and never telling me (no chance of an invite:() so I don't know if I will ever see them again as after 4 weekends away together this year and 5 weeks at the olympics the other year (I was debt busting. Buying a ticket was never going to happen. Cried so much after about a week. They didn't even buy me a ticket for one event ) I know fun things and the family I can guarantee to be not invited. They are off to the commonwealth games later in the year (yes DS you can afford all these foreign trips but not the bus fare to visit me and yet you won't let me go down to London to visit you and when you do visit it's a one sided conversation and only for 1 hour) and I don't want to go after the trauma of the olympics the other year... Family will always do fun things. without me and yet who does all the day to day supporting of M . Yet I'm not supposed to get upset or anything. Well I haven't seen you all year and like you two have spent 4 weekends together and if I do get told it's just before hand. ....Family....lets not go there
