Here we go (again), as the world’s press descend on Vienna for this year Eurovision Song Contest. It’s a time to catch up with old friends, start making new friends, and remember that the Song Contest is a very big family.

    Welcome back to the daily podcast 🙂

    I swear I have not laughed this hard in a verrrrry long time (well since juniors last year).

    Ewan, is there video of you going on national TV in Moldova?

    As for everyone else, you have done very well for the opening press room podcast.

    A special mention to Garrett for being such a good sport in being wound up lol.

    I hope to see more of the fun and games on the road to the grand final.

    Sending all good will and laughter (and if Guy is going to be a party animal, then I hope the drinks are free flowing) and all that good stuff from down under, from one of the only Aussie fans who is not on staff.

    Matt

    I’m going to enjoy having your podcasts on in the background when I watch rehearsals, write my blog etc…

    Nice start to the Eurovision fortnight!

    Ewan, I don’t think we can say that Jemini finished 26th in 2003. They scored no points. So like a high jumper who fails to clear his opening height, they should be regarded as unplaced.
