World of Chig   

28.4.11
Heute beginnt die Reise.

(The road trip starts today.)

Chig's drive to Düsseldorf starts today, via the Retro bar in London tonight for Douze Points (semi-final 2) and a sleep in Walthamstow, then Eurotunnel tomorrow and a drive from Calais across a tiddly bit of France and halfway into Belgium for a stag weekend in Brussels. On Monday, another couple of hours' drive to the campsite on the Unterbachersee in Düsseldorf which will be my home for the following fourteen nights, if I can put up my new, bigger tent.

Camp Chig! Camp Eurovision! Call it what you will. It's going to be a very different Eurovision, and hopefully a lot of fun.

Eurovision rehearsals start this Sunday (1st May). I'll be reporting back from Tuesday 3rd onwards. Bis bald, meine Freunde!

14.4.11
Wir gehen nach Deutschland!

One month tonight, it will all be over in Düsseldorf, as the Eurovision final takes place. So it comes as some relief, at this late stage, to be given accreditation today for this year's contest. I'll be doing the same job as last year, for attitude magazine's website. Hurrah! I'll be there from Tuesday 3 May (and will therefore be in Germany for my birthday too, as well as election/referendum night). Watch this space.
