KANT

Malta’s Eurovision 2025 entry, Kant by Miriana Conte, is making waves — and not just for its club-friendly beat. The title means “singing” in Maltese. But to English ears, it sounds like Miriana is gleefully dropping a word that would get your nan washing your mouth out with soap. Naturally, this has sent broadcasters intoContinue reading “KANT”

It’s the saddest truth!

This is one of the reasons I gave myself a vacation from mainly Facebook and some other branches of social media. I was turning into one of those zombies and I really didn’t like what I was seeing and feeling
 well, what I wasn’t actually! There’s nothing wrong with modern technology or social media –Continue reading “It’s the saddest truth!”

Eurovision 2024 – Ferries from HelsingĂžr to Helsingborg – Trains to Malmö – and Back!

It’s 1:28 and I’m on my last leg of my journey back to HelsingĂžr! But I digress
 This was brilliant all round – SVT do what they do very well! It was a slick production – almost too slick – but when at some point the audience started with ‘Petra, Petra, Petra’ chants (for thoseContinue reading “Eurovision 2024 – Ferries from HelsingĂžr to Helsingborg – Trains to Malmö – and Back!”

Eurovision 2024 – The Train(s) to HelsingĂžr!

Hello Denmark, hello KĂžbenhavn! I can’t really say anything negative or sarky about this country, its capital or the lovely people who inhabit it! Everyone is lovely and helpful, the fields are yellow, full of cows and green! Only slightly unnerving was the painted wall which greeted me at the airport: For someone who’s sleptContinue reading “Eurovision 2024 – The Train(s) to HelsingĂžr!”

Eurovision 2024 – The Flight to Malmö!

Hurrah! I’m on the plane! Eurovision fans everywhere! I wonder when the crew will start singing EUPHORIA
 So far sadly it’s only Ryanair’s abysmal ‘getting on the plane’ music. And a Spanish member of the crew shouting at everyone, in a Franco-esque manner, to sit the f**k down..! He’s cute but that’s about his onlyContinue reading “Eurovision 2024 – The Flight to Malmö!”

Eurovision 2024 – The Road to Malmö.

The things one can do after two hours of sleep! With the National Rail overtime ban (and strike) in mind I’m heading to Stansted by bus. I am so hideously early 😂 I may even have time for a coffee before boarding my bus at Stratford. Eurovision! I can’t wait to get to Copenhagen andContinue reading “Eurovision 2024 – The Road to Malmö.”

FROZEN

So I finally saw Frozen on Thursday. Well
 it’s a kind of less green version of Wicked with added snow. But I cared more for the horny sister than the blond one if I’m honest. Oh, and Swarovski enthusiasts will have a field day and very likely get aroused during every scene in the icyContinue reading “FROZEN”
