BBC is saying Australia and Finland are hot faves to win. I might watch, I might not. I'm not at home right now and I don't know how long it will run. Hours I think! - @fluffy2560

Running?

Never watch sports coverage so am guessing this is a long running race?

My brother used to run every Saturday as a teenager for 26 miles.

Down LA Blvd; In Simi and over the windy pass road into the San Frenando Valley;

Left in the morning and came home after dinnertime.

Took a shower and slept in all day Sunday.

My first ex BIL was on the track team at UCSB. A super skinny guy.

I did a light run with him once when I stayed with them in Santa Barbara. Boring is all I can remember.

Tried the jogging fad in the 70,s found it dull and my knees were not happy.

It is not a rich man,s sport like golf or tennis, just need a good track and decent pair of shoes.

Oh, and a good pair of knees.

It's the Eurovision Song Contest. Height of kitsch, glitter, glamour and nonsense - European style.


It's completely nuts and even weirder is Australia participating.  They are members of the European Broadcast Union (EBU) so they get a slot to perform.


Maybe the US gets involved sometime - have to join the EBU for that.  Will Ferrell is a kind of "ambassador" for it since he appeared in a movie as the Icelandic entry.


Hungary might not broadcast it due to OV legacy BS but accessible on YT otherwise.
