Eurovision Review

















Saturday night was Eurovision night and I had a few friends around to join in the spectacle. Martin waves the flag for the UK, but we were doomed from the start, as Daz Sampson finished 19th. Jayne (and Tom) really entered into it, and Tom even got to vote for the winners Finland.
Poor Norm had to sit through the whole event as he was here for the weekend. Even the room was decorated with the Union Jack flag and previous Eurovision UK entries.
We had scorecards and marked each song based on 4 sections, then at the end we add up the Top 5 scores and Croatia won the total votes so we phoned that through. Sadly the rest of the UK didn't vote for it so it got "nil" points from the UK (but it didn't do too badly overall!)
Our top 5 were:

5th - Lithuania 64 points
4th - Denmark 136 points
3rd - Finland 186 points
2nd - United Kingdom - 187 points
1st - Croatia - 219 points

For all those visiting the Blog cos of Lithuania, here are the lyrics to "We are the Winners" (you can see the video further down in this Blog):
