Glwuh?

I have seen one episode of frodding Glee. One. Cute, but I didn't take to it.

So why, when I woke up this morning, was I leading a sort of marching chorus of students through the corridors of some dingy factory-office place, regaling baffled and alarmed workers with a medley of Madonna hits?

Clearly I am an incredibly strange person, and the sooner I stop living and become a mixed-up zombie the better for everyone.

Also: does anyone (in the set of my friends who own televisions and see advertisements on them) find those WKD commercials funny? I mean really. Does that offensive stereotype need any more positive reinforcement? I think not.

I like Glee, but, it has to be said, for what they do to the music. As a soap it's somewhere between bad and dire, but that's what I think of most soaps. And Glee does have a marvellously evil villain in Sue Sylvester.

I loved your description of your dream - definitely Glee-inspired.

And yes, I'm one of those who actually watches the Eurovision Song Contest if at all possible, in the vain hope that the various entries might actually be sung in the language of the country competing and not in very simple English. France usually obliges - what an admission!

I remember one year when I was at home I was very impressed with what I could understand of the lyrics of the French entry in the preliminary whatnots, and when it came to the actual contest they had been replaced with a load of utter piffle in English, which was then repeatedly played on the radio as "the French entry" for some weeks afterwards. I think it was at that precise point that I lost interest in Eurovision.
