    Oh darn I was hoping we would reach 40.

    Aw well the silver lining is that Czech Republic are back which we all thought would never happen and we're 2 up from last year which is also pretty good. Besides, at the end of the day it's about quality over quantity and recent contests have proved that. :)

    I'm amazed at Czech Republic returning. It's great news, they have a strong music scene. If they take it seriously, then with them, Vienna 2015, & Hungary really going for the win, we could be staying in this part of Europe for a while.

    So I went out for a meal at a Greek/Turkish restaurant this evening and during the meal they dimmed the lights and some belly dancers came out and danced to a couple of pieces of traditional instrumental music. And then...DUM TEK TEK came on as they were dancing away. What a tune.

    Merry Christmas all!
