I assume some of you enjoyed the Eurovison Song Contest last night? Oh what I'm I kidding? At least you get a laugh, especially from Terry Wogan's comments.  It has given me the idea to do a Hayley song contest. I've picked ten songs at random and you can score three of the songs of your choice 8, 10 and 12 points. 1. River Of Dreams - 12 2. One Fine Day 3. Bridal Ballad 4. Both Sides Now 5. Amazing Grace 6. Beat Of Your Heart 7. Danny Boy 8. The Heart Worships - 8 9. I Say Grace 10. My Heart And I - 10 I've already added my points. |

Hi Oskana, You have given two songs 12 points! Just to remind how the Eurovision scoring system works: Countries first give out 1 through to 7 seven points and then finally 8, 10 and the maximum 12 points (why there is no 7 or 11 points I don't know why!) But to simplify it, we will just use 8, 10, 12. I'm confused now!  |

Ooh! Well, I don't live in Europe, so how was I to know? I thought that might have been why. Sorry, I didn't mean to upset you Oksana, I should of made it clear from the start.  It doesn't matter anyway, it looks like its run out of steam before its started. |
