I never drink at Eurovision. This year I may treat myself to some Schloer though.
I'm guessing that I must be the Mother Theresa of the Eurovision forum because I'm teetotal.

I am too. Although me and llamajohn will probably be getting Polish apple/mint juice again for the final like last year. XD

I remember picking some up from Tesco once - wasn't great, but I imagine it's an acquired taste, could be quite refreshing.

Is it just me or in the run up to Eurovision does time seem to go very very slowly?
The past two years have felt like six for me. I feel like I should be 22 or something.

Anyone seen the film Munich?

We have nothing planned for tonight and have it on sky +. Just wondering if it's worth a watch
I saw it at the cinema when it first came out so it's been a while...it's quite long but engrossing. Made me a big fan of Eric Bana.

Cheers. Will give it a go but will need to pause for the Humps performances.

Might not go down to well but what can you do ?

Ha, it has to be done.

I was trying to persuade people at work to give Graham Norton a watch tonight but they didn't seem too interested.

I got quite a surprise earlier when I heard Switzerland 2011's entry playing through the main shopping centre over here, I've heard Satellite there too before so whoever controls the music must be a eurovision fan!

I've had the line "I'm down on my knees but too proud to say pleas" swimming round my head all day- just googled it and realised it's Lisa M's MelFest song.

Off out with a cricket team tonight so am having to a) drink a lot before as they seem to be constantly on the verge of being drunk and b) miss the Hump's live performance.

Not quite- they drink a fair bit but don't have as much personality!

Phew - home from work and all the drama, will be around to watch 2 x Hump tonight!

The sweepstake's going quite well, only got 12 more to sell, and Iceland and Spain are still available

The guy who picked Ireland is properly pissed off though, and I quote "I wasted a quid on those two wankers?!"

It wasn't bad, although I couldn't remember whether we decided not to bother this year in boycott of Poland withdrawing. XD

There are a few Polish food shops around my area, found some brilliant things like Banana juice imported from Latvia as well as some horrors like strawberry filled pierogi.

Not exactly fine quality food that's for sure.

Just realised it's 27 years to the day of the Bradford City FC fire.

My dads brother in law was at the game(police).Just watched the footage on YouTube(don't know why).

Absolutely horrific

I just found my dwarf hamster dead, was expecting it really he'd not been himself lately.

This was him when i first got him a few years ago, his name was Totoro.

Aww!

When I first watched My Neighbour Totoro, it was after Grave of the Fireflies and I was terrified that it would destroy me in the same way.

In relation to hamsters...I had Russian hamsters years back and was advised to have 2 as they like company...they (and I mean this literally) ripped each other to sheds.

If it's any consolation my hamster Wagner died around this time last year in a tragic accident involving a vacuum cleaner so you're not alone.

yeah that can happen quite a lot, you supposed to have two cages one as spear in case they fight but pet shops don't tell you useful information like that.

never seen grave of the fire flies is it any good?

Revision is slowly sliding me into a pit of despair. Lats exam on Tuesday and then three months off.

I'm on countdown for 2 weeks tonight now, though! Only the thought of raspberry lemonade and vodka later is getting me through this painful stretch.

Grave of the Fireflies is beautiful but really heartbreaking. I watched it as a double bill with the French film Irréversible and was an emotional wreck afterwards!

Has anyone else watched Britain's Got Talent tonight? I didn't have high expectations for it but it's been brilliant.
