Yet another occasion when you wish there was a big red button to set everything back to zero.

Re: Eurovisiom 2026 - Look Mum, No Points
The Ukranian jury spoiled things by giving us the one point.
I couldn't bear to watch it, but I have heard the winning song, and it's no better.

All 35 songs, summarised in seventeen and a half minutes. Even that's too much.

Re: Eurovisiom 2026 - Look Mum, No Points
Rylan and Scott Mills have apparently been beside themselves and were the probable cause of the Beeb having to announce who they'd picked.
I suppose we have to reserve judgment until we hear it, but it doesn't bode well. I don't know about chirpy chirpy, but it had better be cheap.

It's that time of year again, although a rise in duty has meant that the £10 line has been breached.

Since watching that link, my FB feed has been peppered with numerous posts from the same clickbait machine, including a "This is hilarious" sketch from Not The Nine O'Clock News, without acknowledging the source, or considering copyright.

I see Aldi has responded and cut the price of its lookee-likee to £4.99. I have tasted it - unlike some things from Aldi, it's not half as good.

Reminded me of Jasper Carrott's joke about KFC - Kan't Find The Chicken.
There are more in there I wish I couldn't remember than those I actually couldn't.

The only vat question on one's birthday should relate to Scotch whisky and be, one dram or two?

Re: Happy 60th birthday BBC2
I watched two thirds of it, missed the second hour for the 1% Club.
I was expecting one song from each year, so was a bit disappointed with the bias on the last twenty five years, and Jools Holland in every other track.
