Welcome to my perfumed garden

And I have a list of Tasks Which Must Be Completed that's as long as a gibbon's arm. ::sigh:: Mostly tedious domestic-type stuff which I will not bore you with but also a chapter of fic to be completed and a chapter of my book for it has been decided, oh yea and verily, that when the bulk of the novel is completed (next week) and Blue is completed (next week? All digits entangled) I am TAKING THE BANK HOLIDAY WEEKEND OFF.

Yes, you heard me. No fic, no novel, no pesky laundry/gardening/cleaning/shopping.3 days in which I expect to be eating too much, drinking plenty, sitting around, watching stuff, reading stuff and be rarely be out of pyjamas. I may be hanging with a fangirl during that time, there is a strong possibility. ::nods::

Anyway, people, it's EUROVISION! tonight, which, as you know is always a highlight of my year. Alas Ireland are already out (Ireland, whaapen?!) as are Serbia! shock horror! A shame, I rather liked that one. ;o)  I mean, what the merry **** is going on here?  

The UK entry is distressingly mundane but hey ho the nonny, I shall be waving my metaphorical little flag all the same as Graham Norton take the reins from the immortal Wogan, a night to remember indeed. I have the wine, I have the olives - I shall be here of course, with my customary live! commentary from 8pm on, should anyone wish to join me in a drunken orgy of snark the Big Eurovision Music-Fest! The beer will flow like wine. There may be balloons. New voting this year of course, that'll be interesting. *g* - I am dying to see the Russian compares and the mid-votes show. And Graham bloody Norton! The bitching is going to be immense!

I rather fancy Spain myself. It won't win of course, but I'll bet it does better than the UK. ;o)

It's the weekend, m'lovelies. Drink responsibly.

Oh, those Russians! Aren't they adorable? A shame about the pre-event publicity but there you go. If you will be shameless bigots, you must accept the consequences.

Lithuania - a bit so so; no strong emotions sparked by that. Graham Norton is being disappointingly restrained so far. I hope he gets a few drinks down his neck soon and livens up a tad.

Israel... Is every bugger singing in English tonight? There used to be a rule. OK, admirable sentiments but the song was a wee bit so so. Hmmm. It's all very low key tonight. Who's up next? OK...

( And it's time for a cut )
