It was almost 20 years ago, but 1998 is still at the forefront of our minds. 

John Howard was the Australian Prime Minister and US President Bill Clinton denied he ever had relations with Monica Lewinsky.

But in the eastern Riverina, things were much simpler.

We took a trip down memory lane in August to 1998 and it was the highest-hitting gallery on the Eastern Riverina Chronicle website in 2017.

Apart from regular or weekly throwbacks (which we have not included in the countdown), this stroll down memory lane was the most popular with our readers.

That’s a wrap for our countdown for 2017’s most popular galleries. 

Join us again in 2018 for more photos and stories.
