[Icy Gull]

@Frutos so we give each other douze points right?

Our countries always have done for as long as I can remember

 

[Pevenseagull]

Off I'm not already in I'm in


Best Eurovison song of the last 20 years

 

[Icy Gull]

My heart sank when I saw who I’d drawn but I think I could be a dark horse here. 250-1 though so probably not but it’s very Eurovision

 

[AndyH]

Sweet draw @Frutos - cheers. Got the fav but recon @HangletonGull with Finland and its bonkers entry may sneak it. Let’s the madness commence

 

[Dave Fishwick]

up the jam rolls!

 

[Psychobilly freakout]

hmm thanks Frutus

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

I'll take a listen later



He does look rather like RDZ's frivilous lesser-balled brother, a but. Spooky!

And someone appears to think he's a bit of a wanker
