I will be brief because tonight is the night – the Eurovision Song Contest 2025.

I have been preparing for a few days now, which included putting the avocadoes (for the guacamole for the traditional nachos) in the sun to ripen.  My shed was the optimum spot for this.  Hot and very sunny.  I worked around them.

And yes, we are all very excited, with the possible exception of OH who will sit in the kitchen and grumble coming in only to mock at various stages of the evening.

The traditional cake is made and looks good.

I just need to make the guacamole and decide which gin to drink and we’re ready.

So bring on Eurovision then……

There will be the usual “honest” running commentary on my Facebook page too.  Feel free to join in.
