Let’s do it for Dustin

According to the Press Association, Ireland’s Eurovision entry Dustin the Turkey hopes to score maximum points and be plucked for this weekend’s final.

The cult figure plans to ruffle some feathers with his performance of Irelande Douze Pointe – a parody of Eurovision – at the song contest semi-final in Belgrade.

Our feathered friend has been campaigning hard in cyberspace too. He has a plethora of Facebook and BeBosupport groups and turkey is off the menu at the thousands of  Eurovision BBQs across Ireland scheduled for Saturday night.

Denis Murray had a great interview with the king of foul this morning on the BBC. Dustin reminded our great island that Terry Wogan was born in Limerick in 1592 and sent to England in 1902 as revenge for the famine. Of course O’Conall Street to tally dissociates from such remarks but would like to point out that culchies are, well, different.

Can’t resist the opportunity to see the great bird in action.
