Has it really been that long?

Blog in ell! Can't believe it is so long since I updated this weblog.

BUT it has been a lovely sunny hot day today and we finally had enough energy to have a wander. We ended up at the amazing area around Millom in Cumbria (Silecroft beach with an amazingly clear view of the Isle of Man; Millom Castle and church; and also the church of St George (where my great great grandfather is buried).

The website has been updated with:

New visits including the 80th castle visit in the UK (Millom Castle):

The Eurovision pages have been revamped with a new news section and with details from the 2005 Eurovision - great show, OK winner, shame about our Javine, well done Malta, Romania and Latvia.

Hopefully, more updates soon, keep forgetting about this thing.

Oh yeah, and Well done the Crazy Frog - Number 1!!! Love it.

Crazy Frog, Eurovision and tired

After one hell of a bad week it is great to be home and relaxed. Eurovision only 2 weeks away means lots of catching up with old contests on DVD, it was 1984 last night, might be a gem from the 60's or 70's tonight... dunno which.

Last night we went to some friends for a meal and had a great time. Also managed to find the brilliant video for the new Crazy Frog Axelf F cover version - it is excellent, he's fantastic.... there's a thought for ESC 2006! If the UK doesn't win in 2005, lets get the Crazy Frog.

Hopefully get out tomorrow for a wander somewhere...
