  • The phrase creakingly posh.


  • The Wet Look Jersey Maxi Dress by Kate Moss for Topshop. I can't wait to see it on the drunken streets of London. It would be amazing to strut in.

  • I've been reminded of the immense gloriousness of Sia's Breath Me.


  • Eurovision 2008 has a stage, with a great big phallic pole up the centre, and tentacles.

  • Eurovision 2008 has a logo. It is intriguing. I'm quite excited to speculate what the purple shape is - a plum? a pepper? a wind-based clay instrument? Your suggestions please!
