And we have a huge nature reserve and fields at the end of my street (search Aylestone Meadows on google maps). It's a paradise for pooches.
It is huge! A medieval bridge as well...
Beauuutiful!

We went the opposite direction. We're four years and some days from retiring, and our dog passed away earlier this year, and we both agree we're not getting another one any time soon. We want to be able to go anywhere at the last minute and not worry about getting the dog squared away.

That's the reason we don't have a dog ATM. R.i.p Kate.

For the first time in my life, I picked the Eurovision winner.
Kid and I watched the show. But went to sleep before winner announcement. Just read it is Italy.
Congratulations .

I thought Portugal or Iceland.
Although Finland went for the style of Italy too. I wondered if it were not going to be Finland.
But one never really knows. Well ...someone does. How did you guess?
😊😎
 
Well we too have a winner. This girl on flute whom I accompany on piano won 1st prize in an online competition. Found out yesterday.

And we have students from our school who won 1st prize(organ), 2nd prizes(flutes, piano,guitar) recently.👏🎉🎉🎉

My student totally sank under stage fright. 9 months of prep for a full flop. Ah well. Her first competition. Had no high expectations. Learning experience for both of us. Better play next time.😊🍀

I picked Italy because of the way they commanded the stage. They were there like they belonged, completely comfortable and just having a great time. Full of energy, and I personally loved the '70's-inspired glam vibe.

Iceland never disappoints, either. They're kind of the spirit of EV - really catchy pop song, kooky performance. I loved them as well.

Add the French contestant to my list of international crushes - she's gorgeous and talented! 💕

it is true, they did own the stage, the Italian band, it was a good song too. Good point!

Lots of retro all over, yes.

Yes, Iceland was a ev hit, Portugal was a very beautiful song and nicely sung, but it did not sound Portuguese at all, had a very American tone to it, I find.

French? Oh I do understand the very emotional chanson, personally I love Edith Piaf and Jacques Brel, but have to be in the mood for that...she, the French lady singer, touched me in no way, unfortunately...

Quite frankly I liked the Austrian song and singer a lot 🌟🌟, Czech was good, Polish was good (the pre-recorded ones, and then they showed some vocal weaknesses on stage), even Finland had a good energy ut the lead vocal was not the adequate level vocally, but no song or singer really threw me off my feet to be honest ...
