Euros in Budapest

[06/02/04 - After the Free Dance]

Sinead Kerr: The crowd was amazing. They got behind us right from the start, which was excellent. I wasn’t feeling that nervous at all, I really enjoyed the atmosphere. Then when we started the first couple of moves, it sort of hit me – oh my God these are the European Championships and look at the crowd! And after that (I thought) come on, let’s go. We’re really happy with our performance, it’s the first time we skated it clean in a competition.
We never skated in front of such a big crowd at all! The biggest was probably our National Championships, and we’re talking maybe (about) a 1000 (people).

John Kerr: We had some problems with the program this year, it’s the hardest thing we’ve done. I’m glad to get through without any major mistakes.
