Please accept my sincere apoligies for no new posts for ages! But I’m gonna keep you entertained with all things Eurovision in the lead up to the contest on the Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday of next week.
All of the acts are now in the capital of Serbia, Belgrade rehearsing. I can promise you- its gonna be a great show.
There is one thing I haven’t got down to yet – ranking the songs. So I’m going to do that today.

So there you have it, my prediction. I think the two main contenders to win are Switzerland and Sweden.
I have a feeling that if Bosnia and Herzegovina and Ireland qualify, it will be hard to do well in the final.
Dark horses: France, Turkey and Czech Republic. Watch out for them!
