Simon, how could you forget the single most important thing which us
europeans know and love and brings us together in peace and harmony.
I refer of course to that pinnacle of musical excellence the "Eurovision
Song Contest". It is a unique event which brings together the diverse
cultures which make up the continent of Europe. Long may it endure!
Cheers,
