Here we are in Finland... at long last! The Holy Grail is just around the corner; we purchased Finnish Tena Lady pads this afternoon in anticipation of seeing the semi final of Eurovision tomörrow night.
All of Europe is Eurovision MAD at the moment!! Danish television is covered with panels analysing Eurovision entries, Finnish television is running nonstop Eurovision-related coverage. To help us survive, we stopped at a lovingly titled shop this afternoon - "Alko" - and for three people, purchased 18 beers (including 'export quality' Fosters), three bottles of wine, premix gin, and two bottles of bubbly. We are certainly in for a ride.
It is EuroTrash's aim tomorrow walking around Helsinki to be interviewed on Finnish TV. We have brought with us an Australian flag, and are considering writing the message "AUS(heart)
Be watching SBS dear Australian readers on Friday and Sunday nights for full coverage. You must be completely sloshed to fully appreciate the goodness on offer.
We certainly will be!
Nähdään myöhemmin!
-EuroTrash!

You CERTAINLY have ripped off PopGoesCanberra quite a lot haven't you!! Then of course, PopGoesCanberra totally ripped off Fop, so I suppose we deserved it! :)

Hi Eurotrash
This is your cousin (sort of, more like an auntie, like cousin's cousin.. mmm whatever...) speaking. Love your work, even moved me to watch Eurov on SBS (well maybe not all) can't wait till you're home and hear the commentary, listen to the SONGS, see the photos, watch the dance moves,, (ooh how proud am I of you two darlings.... )
love M
Oh the suspense! I await your next entry ... I mean, like, how WAS it?
As a Ukrainian by breeding I especially liked the alien tranny extravaganza. But, in similar vein, a Serb is the best damn man I ever did do so I wish that nation well in all its endeavours as a result. I'm sure you're swept up in the orgiastic Eurovision pageantry right now and simply don't have time to blog. But spare a thought for us here. I for one live vicariously through you and, heck, anyone outside Canberra.
Kissy, kissy, pet. Mini
I popped my Eurovision cherry last weekend Nigel and wondered where it had been all my life!
Push the Button was a definite favourite! So dissapointed that israel didn't get into the finals, cant wait to debrief with you when you get back!
see you soon, michelle
