Thought this was gonna be worth a few quid at the bookies but apparently not!!!

linky to Eurovision crap

There was talk on the radio a day or two back they'd done this purposely not to win, something about them being embarrassed at winning so often.

Don't watch the contest but I've heard worse....

Not sure it's embarassment at winning is it?

It's just so damn expensive to host it!!!

It has nothing to do with talent, just politics. The whole thing is a farce anyway and we will get frozen out by everyone else again like the last several years.

At least Ireland acknowledges this fact and sticks two fingers up to the competition.
