Not hearing any hits I bunged a few quid on Germany at 22-1 but now I've heard one I really like - The Netherlands - all about birds sliding down rooftops. Very nice, classy and could surprise us.
I'm no expert on Eurovision, but I have a friend who is!!
Denmark are so clear favourites its making the odds on everything else quite favourable. So, like my expert friend, I have a few shillings on Germany at 22/1 covered with a lower amount on The Netherlands at 18/1. If either win, I'll be able to afford a small celebration in the sunshine.
For me Dixie, Denmark is a real no hoper - Eurovision by numbers.
Didn't hear any hits on one brief listen, which is why I plumped for Germany - but on seeing The Netherlands I really liked it, and her... one of my personal favourite entries in ages; original and clever...
I may get attracted to one during the second semi (met the nice Icelandic guy) but doubt it.
I heard The Shadows' 'Let Me Be the One' the other day - first time in decades. Lovely little song, I much preferred it to Abba's song about dyspeptic history books etc. I like the Netherlands this year, but really there's so much tat these days I don't blame the Beeb for giving up the ghost.
