Howdy all. The Eurovision Song Contest final should have been held last Saturday. Followers of the blog will no doubt know that I am a huge fan of Eurovision. So anyways, thanks to the situation the entire world finds itself in right now, the contest was cancelled this year. However, they did manage to hold …
Covid Cam is BACK - and today it's just me being very silly during the afternoon of May 1st. Heart's 'Alone' is an awesome song, no-one can deny that, and so it seemed fitting that I convert it into an 'Ode to Isolation'. Blissfully short this week to - please enjoy! Thanks for popping by …
