Hello Europe!

Yup, it's that time again: Eurovision time. You ready?

This year we're in the lovely Belgrade, capital of last year's winners Serbia. Wogan's on form as always, bottle of whiskey at the ready. I reckon Serbia only won it because they gave up Montenegro last year. That's politics for you.

I wonder if they use the Eurovision as some sort of political bargaining chip? "Give up Montenegro...and we'll let you win Eurovision." No sign of Kosovo this year, that's surprising. Perhaps they weren't freed in time for the elimination round? I've theorised that whilst all eyes are on Belgrade, the Serbian army is secretly marching on the Kosovoian border.

Some weird and wonderful entries this year, and they're really delving deep into eastern Europe with Georgia and Azerbaijan making an appearance this year. Although i reckon Georgia is there because they weren't allowed in the EU this year. Our entry this year wasn't bad, as UK entires go. Andy Abraham I think his name was, a runner-up on X-factor or something.

Armenia, Greece and Ukraine were fitties, and they happened to have decent songs too.#

Voting is going pretty much according to the Status Quo. San Marino in their Eurovision voting debut gave us 6 points, which was nice of them since most Brits probably have no idea where San Marino is. Everyone's been nice to Azerbaijan this year, considering their entry was whack.

Russia and Greece are the favourites so far. I so hope Russia don't win, they've been so smug this year, especially with their threats over oil supplies.

Crap, they won. See you in Moscow.
