Off Topic The Burly Arms

My heavily pregnant fiancé is making me watch the final tonight.

Very popular here in Norway

 

I won’t watch the whole thing but will drop in and out. Always fun. Up the Israel

 

I sincerely hope that there is no booing / protest etc at the Israeli entry ... and it is also judged on the merits of how good the song is and nothing else ... a particular dislike of mine is when sports 'people' or artists are linked / blamed for the actions of governments or politics ...

 

They've already passed the first hurdle, Israel is one of the countries that has to get through the semi-finals. It's a public vote with no jury influence, it's probably the most cut throat aspect of the competition.

They got through with no issues what so ever and I suspect they will be an easy top 10 placed act.

 

I thought they had some jury votes now too. It’s never really been about who has the best song entirely. Israel were about sixth favourites last time I looked. Sweden favourites with a lot of money on Finland hotly tipped for whatever reason.

 

Nah, the semi's now are just public voting

the final itself is 50/50

If it was gonna put money down it would be on Austria, think they're a bit underrated tbh, I'd actually consider them a favourite. but then again i dont ever bet so what the **** do i know

 

It’ll be goodnight Vienna if they aren’t at their best.

 

Early finish and home for a shower then off to the pub to meet a mate for the FA cup.

Bish bash bosh

 

It would be nice for a Palace win against King Pep. Although I slagged off Haaland the other day, so he's bound to go and score a hat-trick now...

Eagles...

Thought this was the football thread lol.

 

This is my daily watch and is about as garish I would wear. I do have an Apple Watch for work.

 

Eurovision ****ers

 

Thought you'd won it 6 times or somefink...

 

Remember we’re each bringing a dish from one nation. You’ve drawn Lithuania. See you at 7 x

 

I thought it was Luv who had to watch it every year due to his wife

 

No chance, tbf Mrs luv doesn't watch it either.

 

Must be misremembering then, might someone else

 

My missus absolutely hates it ... I don't mind it

 

I'd rather nail my bollocks to a plank.

Third round of the PGA will be on, that's my evening entertainment.

Got a cook out tea first though. Just burgers and such ****.
