Serving Our Queen & Country At Eurovision 2012

OMG, OMG, OMG ……we are soooo totes overwhelmed, we received this e-mail from a lovely lady called April and just can’t help reading it over and over again and still cannot believe it’s true, it’s like the most wonderful dream we have ever had and we don’t want to wake up………
Baku Eurovision Song Contest
…… and we have to admit that we are so overcome that several tears have been shed!!!
001
 Everyone knows how much we adore the Eurovision Song Contest, it is one of our televisual highlights of the year …… but never did we imagine that one day we would become personally involved in such an important way and called upon to represent serve our Queen and country ………
002
We don’t have any idea who may have nominated us but the honour and very great responsibility that we have had bestowed upon us is palpable,  and we vouchsafe that we will not let them down, whoever they are. 
006
Naturally we e-mailed April back immediately to accept our place on the  Voting Panel and await her reply and further instructions, it’s all toooooooooo exciting! ….. We can’t imagine the wonders of what is about to unfurl before us, but we will robustly embrace and squeeze dry each and every new experience for all we are worth,….. we shall stand proud and not let our country down ……..
Picture1
Land of Hope and Glory, Mother of the Free,
How shall we extol thee, who are born of thee?
Wider still, and wider, shall thy bounds be set;
God, who made thee mighty, make thee mightier yet!
We have been truly, truly blessed in a Hello magazine type way
We are not sure if we will actually have to travel to Baku, to perform our duties but our passports and EHIC cards are on top of the microwave just in case. ……. and Darrell has been musing as to whether we will get to meet Graham Norton in person …….. !!!!

I am certain you would be most responsible members of the voting jury and there is no doubt you would serve Queen and Country to your utmost capacity in whatever duty you were chosen to do. Hoping you will never be disappointed by life's ironies. Sending my best wishes and much love and support to both of you......

The name April with surname Fool is a bit of a giveaway but funny all the same.
