The United Kingdom won the contest on May 3rd, with 'Love Shine a light', sung by Katrina and the Waves. The score was the highest in the contest's history, and so was the winning margin. I took over 200 pictures, and some of them can be seen on this site. Thank you for being patient. Rather too many distractions have made my reports from Dublin get very much delayed, but there's still more work to do, but some of it is here, and we still have over 40 weeks to the 1998 contest! I hope you will keep coming back to see me finally catch up with this year's contest! |

Paul Oscar, seen here at his Press Party in Dublin was the guest at the
Eurovision Network Convention October 18-20 in Bingley, Yorkshine. It will be interesting
to see if he does his Dana and Baccara impressions we saw at the Icelandic press
party in Dublin!
Not to be outdone, OGAE UK, had Niamh Kavanagh, the
1993 winner, as their booked guest for their convention in Southampton October 10-12.(she also attended the Network convention)

Trenhantiri, the specialist Greek record shop has a large proportion of
this year's Eurosongs (and past ones) for sale. At the time of writing stocks are
said to be running low, but they are hoping to get copies of the relatively rare
Hungarian entry soon.
