Eurovision week is upon us.

General
It's almost time. The Eurovision week is upon us. Two semifinals and the grand final will unfold over the coming week to reveal where we will be heading next year.
The big favorites this year are Russia and France, with Bulgaria, Malta and Sweden close by. Sweden is all set to win on home ground, but is Frans strong enough to accomplish that? Russia is betting there money on a strong pop song with fancy choreography, but might be end up to much like last years Heroes. France is betting on charm and a strong song but seems to be coming up short when it comes to stage performance.
Without a really big favorite we seem set for an exciting week filled with surprises and tension.
Have a great ESC week, and may the best song win!

Ukraine has also been put up for the very betting odds to win this too! And I'm gonna cheer for Jamala! ^^ I'm also big fan of Cyprus, Iceland, France, Italy, Hungary, Armenia, Croatia and Bulgaria. Hope they all do very well!
I had a Eurovision-themed meeting for my Toastmasters club last week; most of the people had never heard of it (unsurprisingly). I asked everyone to dress up really well or really badly, and awarded a prize to the person who most got into the spirit of it.
