Yes, Poland was the dog's bollocks. Here's the breakdown as to why it was awsome-
-The streets are full of hot girls. I mean, FULL of them. Also, as it was summer they were all wearing sleeveless tops. Sweeeeet.
- The Poles love their Metal. The local Debenham's type shop has a Metal section for CDs. A great selection at cheap prices. So cheap in fact, I bought 6. Speaking of cheap prices...
- Everything is dirt cheap. No, seriously, everything. A large kebab and chips with a large Pepsi was £2.50 or 10 Zloty. The Supermarkets are cheap too. It was 75p or 3 Zloty for a litre bottle of Pepsi Twist. Normal Pepsi was even cheaper. You could get a Nestle chocolate bar for 25p or 1 Zloty.
- All the billboards on Polish roads are dominated by adverts for Iron Maiden's latest tour, Ministry's "Farewell" tour and some local Metal festivals.
- Among the legions of hot girls were guys with long hair and HammerFall or Iced Earth t-shirts. I was able to fit in perfectly.
- Breakfast was all-you-can-eat. They served three different kinds of sausage.
So, yeah. Poland was awsome. Hugh would love it because all you can get to drink there is Pepsi... in 1 litre bottles.
PS, Paul and Hugh, see you guys both on the 16th.
Miss O'Donnell is definately not going out with TK! Huzzah! According to her Bebo page, she's going out with some guy called Ben, but I don't care, so long as it's not that goon.
Well, that's me feeling a bit better now. And Chris getting beat up is still on YouTube. Heh, and the summer Holidays are fast approaching. There's always a downside though- English NAB with (or should I say wit) Mr Galea.
Well, after 4 years of wait, it's finally here, another Euro Cup, this time in Austria and Switzerland.
Let's here who everyone on GS is supporting (by everyone, I know Pepsi-KFC will be the only one to respond)
I myself am supporting Switzerland. Sure, they lost their first match, but they should do better later.
Also, my finger's a little better. Matt's aff the hook, for now....
I think my "ring" finger may be slightly fractured, or at least bruised on the bone, as is more likely. Stupid Matt... here's how it happened. Previously in English Matt had tried to rip one of my books in half. In retaliation, I put a crack in the spine of his. So what does he do in vengence? Whacks my fingers with the corner of his book at full force. He couldn't've hit me harder if he tried. Now there is an irregular and unnatural bump on my finger, which is very clearly a peice of bone and it doesn't bend properly.
Worst part is, he's defending himself. Now claiming that I shouldn't worry because "I have nine more" and apparently, from Doctor Matt, "Most finger breaks need no plaster." I wish he would burn in hell. ![]()
Edit: Thanks Pepsi-KFC, I'll mention this guy's nose. You know that stereotype of Jews having big noses, well this guy ain't helping the cause. His nose is huge, I mean, it's the biggest nose I've ever seen. I felt like breaking his nose today and saying, "Sorry Matt, but it doesn't matter, you still have enough nose to cover nine normal sized ones." but then I realised karma will get him eventually. Unless My Name is Earl lied to me...
Well, we all know Eurovision is just about politics. Russia votes for the former USSR, the Balkan countries all vote for each other... it's all garbage.
But one magical year (2006) Hard Rockers Lordi broke this spell and won! Hurrah! Up yours Europe. Well done Finland!
Next year, Serbia won by receiving a straight run of "Douze Points" from fellow Balkan countries. Back to normality then.
This year Finland were hoping to do it again. By entering Teräsbetoni, who I believe are big stars in Finland Finland were obviously hoping to repeat Lordi. They failed. They weren't last, we were, but they were beat by the worst act I've ever seen, Spain.
Oh well, there's always next year. Maybe Sweden or Norway will follow their Scandanavian bretherin and enter a Metal act next year. If they do, I'll see you in Scandanavia in 2010!
There is always someone who clames that you are lying when you say you've heard of a band before they got famous, but in the case of Teräsbetoni I'd heard of them and became a listener after I found out the guy from Dreamtale was joining them. As his voice is amazing I decided to check out Teräsbetoni and they're quite good.
In other news I was on the edge of my seat watching the Scottish Cup Final today. Naturally, I was supporting underdogs and all round tournament heroes Queen of the South. Screw Rangers, they get enough glory.
I missed the first half, but sat down to watch the second. Rangers were winning 2-0. About 10 minutes later Queen of the South scored two goals in three minutes. Yahooo! But they lost the match in the end.
A completely dissapointing day.
I know I spelled Teräsbetoni wrong in the title. Damn GS won't let me use the "ä" character.
I'd like to make one thing clear from the start. Unlike other people, I've been listening to Teräsbetoni for some time, about a year. Now that's out of the way...
Power Metallers Teräsbetoni are representing Finland in the Eurovision Song Contest tonight. Yay! Now some folks think their music is crap and I can see where they're coming from, yet I think the band is a bit of a joke band, playing for fun.
Either way it's Metal vs. Europe.
Come on Finland! Come on Teräsbetoni!
