	I am watching it, as usual o.h. has fallen asleep. I didn't know that our female representative suffers from cystic fibrosis, Interesting that Australia is involved, apparently they would not host if they won, but would get to choose who would host next year! Lizx

	At least this year so far the songs have been 'proper' songs. Quite liked the Swedish one.
