Eurovision

Belgium is, as we know, a country divided by language and culture, and so I was interested to read on the BBC website about its Eurovison entry. It is in a made up language. The ‘words’ include "O julissi na jalyni, O julissi na dytini, O bulo diti non slukati, Sestrone dina katsu..." which doesn’t mean anything at all, in any language but is, I suppose, inoffensive.

I rather hope it wins: it seems to symbolise the whole event.
