Hey I'm getting quite good at this prediction thingy....

Only got a couple wrong and not too surprised:

1) Montenegro had a poor draw - we would liked to have seen that dancer again :O
2) Switzerland's vocals let them down.

Glad for Finland though - still a long way from the greatness of the recorded version, but they did enough I suppose....and glad for Iceland - she was very good tonight. Portugal was sweet and charming, whilst BiH only gave me minor goosebumps rather than major ones: methinks they were holding back tonight and going for the big one on Saturday.

Relief as Sweden got through...my mum still thinks "La Voix" is in with a good chance, but I'm still not sure. It's OK, but maybe I'm still a little bitter, as my repeated rants of "It should have been Hope and Glory" throughout the three minutes of "La Voix" might just have given my feelings away :)

My "they only have to turn up and they'll qualify" award goes yet again to the reigning champions - Turkey and Armenia, with Romania also firmly in that category. I've got my toilet breaks timed for Saturday...!

So we have to put ourselves through it all again on Thursday night, preferably with the volume down when those shouty, shouty, SHOUTY!!!! presenters are on, (worst presenters ever) and their interminable, embarrassing results act. BTW, did anyone else get the urge to shout "just push the f*****g button why don't you???" tonight? Thought so.
