Okay. Initial summary.

Only a few dud acts, so decent value overall.

Winner has to be between Spain, Croatia and Ireland, IMO. But several others are credible contenders. Including (*muffles laughter) Israel. But music is the real winner her.

Our song was ok but the performance was excellent. I think this might be fixed.
