Hi Mark--any idea when Barry will be on?? And are they all going to have to sing with a Spanish accent this Saturday? :lol: :lol:

The Abba week was a bit of a disaster. I have to say that I am not really keen on Eton Road, but I think they gave the best performance---and I also loved Ray's swing version of Waterloo. For the rest, I was seriously underwhelmed !!!

Julio Iglesias was guest on Jonathon Ross show on Friday Night.
He is Sixty Four years old and awaiting the birth of his Eighth child. :shock:
He said that he started early and was finishing late. :lol:

I don't dislike Julio or Rod Stewart-just not top of my list.

Well, Julio did not seem to add much to the show last night. Surprised to see Nikkitta go, I thought last night was her best night.

Big surprise to hear Westlife are on next week--even my sister did not know, and she is checking their website every day for news of TV appearances.

I agree Marian, he just didn't seem to participate as much as Tony did. I didn't see it all though, I was watching "Strictly Come Dancing" :wink:
I just saw the results part, and Julio singing one song.

Thats why you didn't see him participate Marian :wink: :wink:

To the other Marian now (can't one of you change you're name??) :lol: Just to let you know Marian that Westlife went straight to the top of the singles chart tonight. Do you know that Westlife started out as Westside, but had to change their name because a group in the US had already chosen it.

We have only been watching the X Factor in fits and starts but the young Ray had perhaps just an average voice but a great deal of personality and style :lol: :lol:
