hahaha, seriously i only saw the last 5 minutes but Dana (she of "all kinds of everything") looked like she was going to explode with indignation


Yeah, that's crap how they do that..should be judges...though I suppose we wouldn't complain if we did that.
Haha you make ireland sound gangsta'!! I heard the reputation, and the songs have been really good but I think they haven't changed the formula. Or maybe it's a conspiracy, like on Father Ted, they WANT ireland to lose so they don't have to fork out the money for the show...hmmmmm...
Poor old Dana...They should enter Westlife, or Boyzone, people'd vote for that!

screw tha'-send the divine neil hannon-my lovely horse and be done with it!

forgot this amazing clip-
neil hannon's how to win at eurovision


BRILLIANT IDEA! YOU ARE A GENIUS!

I'll take a squiz and the video now (my connection is SLOW)

*sigh* Neil Hannon. I wish I could meet him and have a photo taken in which I look simple...

hehe do you tell them our 'break in' with the extremely tight security?? I felt like such a dick when we were in there, i'm pretty sure I saw fran give us a 'who the fuck?' look, but it was so funny, us trying to be all combat, when the security was off somewhere not doing their job and we just walked in.
if they don't believe you, just put them onto me!

Ireland should have entered this instead

yep, we are sending a turkey.

my favourite line from his song being:
"Drag acts and bad acts and Terry Wogan's wig
Mad acts and sad acts, it was Johnny Logan's gig"

odds are it'll still be better than half the shite there


hehe thats great news :0)

Sorry I was out drowning my sorrows after the massacre at Pairc an Chrocaigh. Ended up in a Czech pub drinking some mad mad sh!t.

So I missed this but I think it's fecking rapid, and not only because you have half the country up in arms about taking the piss in a very serious competition. Fuck 'em

It's the old Isolde's Tower across from the Turk's Head on Parliment Street. here

It's the imaginatively named "Czech Bar", they must have been up all night thinking that fucking nugget of pure gold up. They weren't gonna let us in but Cookie Monster's Sister is married to Correll(Czech) who did the talking for us.

I was drinking some apple sh!t that was 40% and some traditional Czech stuff to although I can't even pronounce that!!

Maybe I should take you there some evening,

Oh we were also in a beer hall before that in The Bull and Castle, Loads of picnic tables and beer in Stein's, Klein's and some other measure, basically Pint Half Pint and Two Pints but loads o different stuff
