    Time for the Eurovision song contest!

    I'm sure you're all excited for it. Who do you fancy?

    :D

    I've not listened to any yet other than ours, which I think might do well, though read Austria has a strong chance.

    It sounds like it's from a musical rather than a pop song, which I think is their background. Not my cup of tea to be honest, but it's the sort of thing you can imagine doing well at Eurovision.

    Apparently the Swedish entry is the favourite.

    Not a chance. It’ll be in the bottom 5 for sure.

    Estonia's entry is the sort of batshit thing you can imagine doing well. To be honest, I didn't hate it.

    Really can't watch Eurovision and my step son is there as Eurovision Events manager! Always been his dream- loved it as a kid and wrote a blog online. They liked it and paid for him to attend - they asked him to do ghe Social media side and was given a promotion to events manager. His name will probably be on the credits at the end

    I didn't hate it either. Entertaining through its quirkiness.

    UKs best song so far, but whether the rest of Europe can bring themselves to vote for us is another matter.

    UK song sounded like something from a West End Show, not a prayer of getting even close to winning.
