Who can forget (much as we might try) Lulu's 'Boom Bang-a-Bang' of 1969 - though that was a slightly hollow victory in that we were one of four countries finishing with max points. This was before the decision to, in the event of a tie, count up the number of countries awarding 12 points, then 10 points (if necessary) and so on, until a single clear winner emerged.<br /><br />As you can see, I take the whole Eurovision business VERY seriously. So no cheap jibes please! ;-)Raybeardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12424095016313843883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20303812.post-5456025906804372412013-03-04T15:31:58.657+00:002013-03-04T15:31:58.657+00:00It seems, if you wait long enough, all things must...It seems, if you wait long enough, all things must pass.

I can go right back to remembering Pearl Carr and Teddy Johnson with their birdie glove- puppet! (Did you ever see them in minor roles in Sondheim's 'Follies', I wonder?)<br />This Georgian entry must be off to a good start including, as it does, the Euro-regulation key-change 2/3 through. <br />I don't think that the U.K. entries over the years have, by and large, been all THAT bad. Pity that so many of the Euro-voters don't agree, but that's not my fault! :-)Raybeardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12424095016313843883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20303812.post-59931254124740989402013-03-04T06:36:03.034+00:002013-03-04T06:36:03.034+00:00So you and the other Queen have tummy problems.
