Is the sound slightly out of sync for anyone else?

 

[Iguana]

Was Dana International singing about Queen Victoria or the the Roman goddess of victory?

[GinAg (39)]

Is the sound slightly out of sync for anyone else?

[Dark Carnival]

OMG RULES CHANGE!

 

[Iguana]

No that would be the whiskey darl

 

[COB]

Hi Dana, it's me. You wouldn't BELIEVE what I'm up to...

 

[Soldi]

[Iguana]

Looking sharp @Soldi!

 

[GinAg (39)]

Oh CHOP CHOP!

 

[Tisch]

L’CHAIM!!

Pics as well. We really are harking it back.to April tonight <3

 

[Lucille]

Who’s the NIGERIAN PRINCE in the crowd?

 

[COB]

Restarting didn't fix it, but it's not TOO bad - I'll put up with it.

 

[Iguana]

This is almost as long an intro as Roma 1993

 

[Tisch]

Oh CHOP CHOP!

Better than 1991 so far. At least theyre not doing their own solos... Yet anyway

 

[Lucille]

He’s awful but I imagine that presenter is quite the DOM DADDY.

 

[GinAg (39)]

Not a thing.

 

[Soldi]

Yes! Everyone post drink selfies NOW!

(Does this also mean we’ll squabble over what to watch as the drunk rewatch afterwards? )

 

[D5K]

I've had a text from Sky saying they may cut off my broadband from 10pm for "maintenance". Hope we're through the performances by then!

 

[Tisch]

He’s awful but I imagine that presenter is quite the DOM DADDY.

Yeah wouldn't mind being ploughed by him totally nonchalantly tbh.

 

[D5K]

Yes! Everyone post drink selfies NOW!

(Does this also mean we’ll squabble over what to watch as the drunk rewatch afterwards? )

Well that'll obviously be 1999 again.

 

[Dark Carnival]

FINALLY!

 

[Pingu]

This isn't THE Aiste is it?

 

[Iguana]

Not a thing.

What's a year or two between friends?

 

[GinAg (39)]

You know I've watched this 18 times but don't remember most of it.

 

[Tisch]

Yes! Everyone post drink selfies NOW!

(Does this also mean we’ll squabble over what to watch as the drunk rewatch afterwards? )

I'm in my pants and drinking peppermint tea so I might PASS tonight. L'chaim all the same!

This is a coincidence - this morning I was looking up this Lithuanian dialect because I was wondering if it was a direct dialect or its own language. Yeah.

 

[Soldi]

This makes me yearn to learn LITHUANIAN

 

[Dark Carnival]

This is the most sober/un-k-holed I've watched it!

 

[Dark Carnival]

YAS LITHUANIA FEEL THAT PERF ART

 

[Iguana]

Not hating this at all!

 

[Tisch]

This makes me yearn to learn LITHUANIAN
