I don't have a problem with that. Except if you start again with another £5, your target should be £300. The next time you start again, £450. And so on.

Eetsa not so bad.

That's a hard one to beat. I'll throw "eating crisps for a week because he thought they were 17 calories a pack" into the mix (although the marketing ethics were pretty shoddy too ).

Bloated with his sense of self-importance (and pies).

Failed to cover its assets apparently.

Fine chaps, yous.

I can't quite tell if I've whooshed you or you've whooshed me here. Shall we call it a score draw?

Trying to impose foreign values on a country is repugnant.

FWIW, so far I've mostly dived into the "to qualify/not qualify" markets and laying top 10/5/4 finishes on Betfair where I think songs are grossly overrated. If you really want the full tedious breakdown of how I see the market right now then let me know.

Reckon they have a chance, Meenz? Naw, probably not - song's a bit difficult and they don't have guaranteed votes like the rest of the ex-Yugos do. Problem is I can normally narrow the list down to 3-4 potential winners by this point, whereas this year none of the bookies' faves excite me in the least - so might as well go a bit left-field. They'll not even qualify for the final now, obviously.

Bristol City to beat Doncaster Colchester to beat Sheff Wed £1.33 double pays £8.38 incl. stake

Bet 1: Eurovision Song Contest 2011 Slovenia to win @ 40/1 - £3.67 (Paddy Power) Total returns incl. stake: £150.47 Current bank: £1.33 Right, there's my audacious attempt to leap-frog everyone if you haven't made it past the £150 barrier by May 14th. Now to find something to spend my £1.33 on.

Choon.

I have sent the mandatory £2 card bought from Tesco Express. Family love never dies.

Given that it would involve running and we're in a thread full of fat bastards (present company included)...

Lersh.

April bloody fool.

YouTube's one is canny, a "1911" button at the bottom-right of the video window. Click it and clips like this or are transformed into something entirely more entertaining.

Off on hols for two weeks the day after the wedding, so a free day off work will do quite nicely for packing and preparation. Well done them on an excellent choice of date.

Urgh. Get enough of his mug on the local news ta.

Yes for me. Just put in for a postal vote because I'll be away.

Co-host against co-host in the final then. And they call F1 predictable.

Haven't tried that one, but I always tend to like Czech lagers.
