Just your average British-Scandinavian gay guy. Daddy to an eight year old son. Sports and music lover. Forever messing about with my own hair. He/him.
Birthday on Wednesday. That is all.

And, now it's been made official that THEY'VE been allowed to stay in the competition, I'm tendering my resignation from the contest too until the EBU finally see sense* and expel them outright.

*which they won't.

RIP Eurovision. It was nice knowing you. Owen would be appalled.
I wholeheartedly disapprove of this. WTF are we even playing at? If Isr**l are there next year, I won't be going to the event itself or watching it on the TV, and will be boycotting the show outright. And this saddens me because I love Eurovision but THAT country is going everything it stands for. 🙄

Quelle surprise. That's me not watching next year, then, nor will I be blogging about the contest. I'll still listen to the songs but, apart from that, it's a full boycott from me.

You made me do this, EBU. Fuck you and the horses you rode in on.
Israel to remain in Eurovision Song Contest
There had been calls for Israel to be excluded over the conduct of the war in Gaza.

This has been stuck in my head all morning. Get the barrels stocked, America. The Scots (and, hopefully, the Irish if we get past the play-offs) are invading next summer. 😁🥃

The part Scottie in me is happy that they're going to the World Cup next year. On the other hand, they were playing us, and I'm kinda gutted that we're heading to the play-offs instead.

Sigh.

Ian Watkins got shanked in Wakey Gaol the other day and some people think it's OK to play his former band's music again.

NO IT ISN'T. HE WAS A COMPLETE WRONGUN. GET HIM OFF YOUR PLAYLISTS. ARE YOU LOT OUT OF YOUR TINY FUCKING MINDS?!

Saw this sticker in Tacoma last weekend, and it's perfect.

The name Nathaniel is stupid. You're either Nathan or Daniel, you can't have both.

Speaking as a Tranmere Rovers, St. Helens and FC Copenhagen fan, I'd rather wear a Liverpool, Wigan Warriors or Brøndby IF shirt. This is vile. 🤢

I missed my usual 'in memoriam' post three days ago but, in my defence, I wasn't feeling my best and just wanted to mourn and grieve in peace.

RIP my darling Owen. It's now been eight years without you and it still isn't fair or easy. I still love you and still miss you so much. 💔

If he's really punched someone to the point of them needing CPR then he's even more of a shithead than I first thought. I lost my husband to a one-punch maniac almost eight years ago. He fell into a coma from which he never regained conciousness.

Hope they throw the key away this time. Arsehole.

Wasps and hornets are nature's wankers. Just been stung by one of the little fuckers and it hurts like an absolute bastard.

PS: Don't worry, I'm fine.

Not feeling at my best today so I'm chilling by listening to a bit of Lady Gaga (amongst others).

Ah, bliss.

"Always you will be part of me and I will forever feel your strength when I need it most, you're gone now, gone but not forgotten, I can't say this to your face but I know you hear, I'll see you again, you never really left, I feel you walk beside me, I know I'll see you again." 😭

Reactivated my old mcneilmortensen Spotify and Last.fm accounts earlier. You know, the ones I originally shared with Mr. O? Spotify has some playlists that some dear friends and family made in his memory and Last has some old songs on it that we both loved. 😢💔

A certain person's account has been suspended on here. I couldn't see his awful posts anyway as we had each other blocked, but still, it's blissful now without him spewing his bile all over the place. He can stay on Twitter for all I care.

Horrible man.

WE ARE BACK IN THE FINAL! Our lovely wee Faroese lassie made it. YAY! Please raise your glasses for Owen (my late husband for those not in the know) at song 22.

(And song 9 for Terry Wogan.)

Thanks guys.
