I'm so uncool I don't even try and hide it. That's how cool I actually am.

No, Germany don't take part so I wasn't even tempted to tape the thing. It's usually good for a giggle though. Laughing at kids is funny. And I definitely won't be trying to watch the delayed webcast on the Norwegian TV website or anything.

Hm, that appears to have been last night. The ITV website is saying David Dickinson. OK, I admit, I have no idea.

Just been talking to the fella and he said it was "the one who talks about red wine with a bouquet of roast dinners and stuff like that". I presume this means Jilly Goulden rather than Cannon or Ball...

I'm thinking "The Shaft".

I'd buy my way to Eurovision for a corrupt country like Belarus and blow the rest on a promotional budget. £1 million got this useless old slapper: ...to within three places of qualifying for the final, so I'm sure the best part of an eight-figure sum would be more than enough to plant thousands moles in low-population, low-televote countries like Andorra and Albania, thus guaranteeing my success. Albeit by extremely dubious means. Hurrah!

Good god! 62591[/snapback] And it was simply fabulous, dahhhling.

I spent Saturday night and the first half of Sunday morning at a Eurovision fan convention in Cologne, so I think I constitute far more of a loser than anyone who was at home and participating in this thread, to be honest.

Third review here stands out a little, too: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000001DT...9696190-6405434 I particularly like the straightforwardness of the review title.

Howay man, stop fawning over them.

The Mage?

Palms chafing? Ask Jimbo for some tips...

Turkish people speak Turkish.

Metallica - One This can't possibly be 17 fucking years old already.

Ahhh, "my" band. Stood by that lot through thick and thin... and there's been plenty of thin. Can't believe they're still going really, saw them late last year in Hamburg and Andy Cairns is showing no signs of giving up, though his voice (and beer gut) are starting to show the strain. Whatever, "Troublegum" will always be my teenagey "mooch around the streets with my Walkman on full blast because life's so unfair" album.

Rather like the meaning of the "S" in "S Club 7", Luque is whatever you want him to be.

Eek, how was I to know my post would end up right after Gemmill's there?

Damn it, I didn't mean to be reasonable. That's Cath's job.

Call this cliquey or whatever, but... is it just me or is there a fairly clear distinction between the attitudes of those who've actually met other posters from the various incarnations of the forum(s) at pissups and for whom this whole Internet malarkey therefore has a tangible, real-life relevance, and those who seem to keep getting bogged down in this kind of conversation again and again? OK, so plenty of the pissup regulars are involved in this and the other circular threads we've been wasting our energy on recently, but a lot of it does seem to be down to the people who lack the kind of mutual respect you get from sharing an actual real-life pint or two, hence coming across as truly intent on incessantly dredging up these cute little cyber-spats and scoring as many Excellent Computer Rightness Points! as they can from behind their anonymous internet shields. Or something. Anyway, Luque's not a left-winger, he's a very naughty boy.

A Chinese takeaway or the Chinese takeaway? 60831[/snapback] They even gave me a money-off voucher this time 60832[/snapback] I imagine you've helped two or three of their kids through college by now

A Chinese takeaway or the Chinese takeaway?

And then there's this... http://www.theburglarsdog.co.uk/_feat/cale...g/calendar.html

That's fucking harsh. ...on Gemmill.

I agree. Raccoon Head is far closer to the mark.
