It's this time of the year...

[Gorman, Declan]

Niall,
  Dustin is a good representation of how much of a joke the Eurovision song contest is to the Irish public these days.  He is not much worse than the entries we sent in previous years.  Don't be surprised if they resurrect Johnny Logan to restore the faith. :0)

Regards,

Declan.

I'd like to apologize on behalf of Ireland for Dustin the
Turkey.  He was cat ten years ago and he's still cat now,
yet still on the TV.  Maybe it's because his hostess, Sinéad
Ní Churnáin, is cute enough.

Anyway, here's some more Eurovision, courtesy of Popbitch:
