I think once it was decided to be a multi-country based competition the location of the final became largely irrelevant in footballing terms. Reports here suggest the government is considering relaxing quarantine rules for UEFA officials and VIPs so that it stays at Wembley. Another 'one rule for us, one rule for them, so beloved of Boris and his cronies.
If it does go to Budapest my main concern would be the publicity coup it gives the Orban regime.
I realise I have two GTM I enjoy. This one

And another on New Braxton House I can't see on Discogs.
I tried to buy the set I attended but listening now I'm not convinced it is but memory plays tricks
Edit to add: found the other

I saw Zim at Café Oto and it was an amazing evening's music. I had also been completely underwhelmed by most GTM (making an exception for one sextet recording I enjoy).
I bought one of the sets on this new collection and I'm still to really connect with it. I can see myself streaming more of the sets, definitely.
l had the same issue about 6 months ago and bought a Pro-ject Debut Carbon Esprit because I wanted 45/33 switch. Very pleased with it but it's belt drive.
It was my first attempt to spend more money on kit than music!
Yes, reports are he's awake and stabilised, thankfully
Also glad I wasn't watching it but wasn't walking a dog
Earlier, Wales have their goalkeeper to thank for keeping the better Swiss team at bay for a draw
I'm no Marc Myers but I am a Mark and will happily say " "Percy France was a fine tenorist who didn't get the attention he deserved. Check out this site that tries to correct that."
I know absolutely nothing about PF but just a cursory first glance has really piqued my interest. A work of passion, very evidently, duly rewarded by a very nice presentation.
England need a couple of Tierneys, at least. We look very promising if you ignore the gaping holes at centre back.
I thought Italy looked efficient and not as good as the BBC coverage hyped them.
I'm looking forward to England v. Scotland and Foden completing his Gascoigne impersonation
