Back in Europe..


So, last night was the Eurovision Song Contest back in Europe... Think it is possible to watch it down here somehow as well, but that would require some effort. And as I cannot say I'm overly interested in watching it that won't do (spending energy finding out how to watch the ESC that is). So I'm quite happy reading about the thing on some swedish newspapers (as always Sweden is favourites to win the contest, in Swedish news papers that is, before the contest).

But one interesting thing is that Finland won this year... and as all Finns they are very good looking (as can be seen from the picture above). If you want to listen to the song click on this link.

But a much more interesting piece of news is that Sweden won thir semi final against Canada! This is in the world cup of ice hockey for you guys who don't know. So, now were in the final.. playing agains the Chech's. We haven't won the WC since 1995... and NO ONE has won both the WC and the Olympics the same year before (we won the olympics agains those good looking finns earlier this year) so that will be interesting. Not that I can watch it down here, no no, I'm limited to watching rugby or another type of rugby or a third kind of running around with the ball and tackle eachother a bit and call it football...........!!!!!

Anyways, hope your day is full of roses and good food

No, hockye world cup wont be a dissapointment, it will be a time to celebrate!

Arsenal winning CL, easy, but nothing would beat Sweden winning the World Cup in football.

England (UK) and Ireland are European countries, and both speak english.. and as both these countries tended to win a lot before when everyone had to sing in their own language people now think that sining in english is the way to go... when you can choose your language. Would be fun to see france sing in english or england sing in french though...

Jaaaa, jag vet! Varför har du fler funktioner än mig! Hur gör man en spalt på vänster sida exempelvis! Dela nu med dig av din vishet till någon som heller plinkar på gitarren än formaterar nätverk eller vad det nu heter ...

(That other guy, Matt, commenting in your blog seems like a bright kid? "Öööhhhh, say what? No, we aussies have always been speaking english, I think we invented it? Yeah, Australian people are australian people, duh. We've been here for ages. Probably as long as you've had swedish people in sweden." Pucko.)
