Eurovision Ireland 
Oh thanks, just to make it clear I was responding to Martin’s comments below probably should have made it clearer.
No problem Padraig – All is good thx
I’ve yet to see another Eurovision site being “vitriolic” towards Ireland or any other country – maybe certain aspects of the mainstream media – but definitely not the ESC fan-sites.
Keep up the great work Padraig on Wiwi Blogs – love the site
Thank you for being so understanding.at my moment of madness and sorry once again. Looking forward to the hug, ahem! 😉 xxx
Any Time 😉 XXX
We are experts in the Hug Department
Seriously? Is this the best news we can offer the world? For goodness sake have you even bothered to read the other sites and how vitriolic they are about us, the nation that has won Eurovision 7 times? Am embarrassed. Had she done something maybe a decade or two ago, I’d be interested but really, who really gives a toss about this non entity? Certainly not me. Sorry Garreth, but this is utter rubbish.So disappointed by this non story. Reeks of desperation and so, so sad.
Disagree with you Martin
We always support any Irish or Foreign Act with their endeavors/career. We have even written about NF entrants from all over Europe and share their post ESC work. Negativity is not our style. We don’t follow other sites and our 1 million plus readers tune in for the Global news.
Ireland’s first ever female representative at the contest is certainly something to write about. Worth celebrating – especially as she wants to perform at the Irish Eurobash concerts next year.
Not like you to be this negative Martin. Why so Blue? Do you need a Hug
Sorry Garret. I was out of order. Bold Martin!!! I actually do like Muriel and appreciate her entry in the Eurovision history vaults. I wish her all the best. Just having a really bad time atm so yes, I probably could really do with a hug. I shouldn’t have been so rancid Once again I apologise profusely. Feeling rather foolish. Hugs and love to all at EurovisionIreland. xxx
Don’t be silly Martin!! No need to apologise or feel foolish
We have missed your comments – so don’t be a stranger 😉
Now where can I deliver the Hug too
