My points have been documented with the appropriate paperwork.

Die Piplup Die!

Actually managed to get on to vote after 10 minutes. Gave Spain, Georgia and UK my three votes.

For my sins I'm tuning in to this - thought the UK could've been in with a real chance but Freya's been unwell to the point of virtually no voice all week which is a real shame.

Absolutely loving this so far - high camp TV at it's finest.

Bye Piplup, time to die!

Hitting up the Elite Four tomorrow and currently rocking this as a team Tinkaton (this thing hits like a truck oh lordt) Annihilape Killowattrel Quaquaval Cyclizar Espathra

Squirtle oh yeah I'm going there!

Gotta be Totodile for me.

Going with something suitably mellow and wintery but I reserve the right to go for something suitably trolly and Oslol appropriate.

Will someone finally kill the bloody Turtwig!

Turtwig

Totodile, Turtwig and Popplio pour moi

My votes will be fashionably late but they’ll be in.

So guess which idiot forgot to do this over the weekend! Won’t be free to listen until tomorrow evening so I’ll take the deduction like the bad gyal I am!

Treecko, Turtwig and Fennekin for me this time.

Benidorm Fest, the surprise smash hit of NF season last year, is back in early 2023 starring the following contestants: Agoney (OT 2017) Alfred Garcia (Eurovision 2018) Alice Wonder Aritz Arén Blanca Paloma (Benidorm Fest 2022) E’Femme Famous (OT 2018) Fusa Nocta José Otero Karmento Megara Meler Rakky Ripper Sharonne (Drag Race España 2 winner) Siderland Sofía Martín Twin Melody Viccó Songs should be out soonish (last year's songs definitely came out towards the end of 2021 so expect them around the same time).

Ukraine are usually so good at Eurovision that you have to theoretically put them down as potential victory challengers anyway regardless of song choice so it stands to reason that they could win again. Although its entirely possible that the opposite happens and people take the view that Ukraine have "had their chance" and don't give them that extra 100-200 televote points that they gave 'Stefania'.

I would commit a not insignificant number of crimes in order to have another Oslol hosted contest *.* ...and pretty sure that just got me fired!

Hope y'all are ready for some spanish language celtic poprock from New Lexico this month!

A lot of the countries like Bulgaria and Montenegro also rely really heavily on sponsorship to fund their participation which is all very well and good until there's nobody willing to foot the bill. Could this mean Kazakhstan finally getting their invite to the big boys competition?

Thinking of going with something Celtic!

Also 152chris 18ing an Ashton song....who are you?

Oooh this is all so close I sense chaos incoming! [/Atyr or Aeroche win as per usual]
