When I read the title of this this topic I was expecting something slightly different. I did see two songs, one with the hook-line 'Cool vibes, why don't you kill me?' - a bit harsh I thought but it would have been one solution. The other was going on about 'Shadows on my destiny', and that was enough for me.

I was in a restaurant with the smallest portions ever known to man... It was like a little lilliput meal. The guy whose birthday it was, was mortified but arranged a suitable discount. I was so amazed at the size of one of the starters I took a pic of it to show folk!!
Then we went to the pub (for crisps!) and the dreaded contest was on the tv...

Brooke - I'm starting to worry about you ....you don't "know" the Eurovision Song Contest...earlier you admitted to the lack of knowledge re 'handbags'...it appears that this forum is indeed further education for you! :wink: :) :) :) :lol:

Yes come along Brooke, it's all very well gazing at the stars all day but you're overlooking one of the wonders of the universe right on your doorstep.
