And the £1,000 vouchers winner is...

Good morning. Hope you're all as well (as can be in these times). Yesterday, we had a bizarre response when we questioned Friar Tucks on the removal of its huge signage from their Armagh store – as well as the work to seemingly clear the inside. After a bit of back and forth they told our reporter Scott they would be "making no comment". While it doesn't look great for the fast-food restaurant, we cannot be 100% certain it is closing for good as Friar Tucks refused to answer the question...a strange one. So apologies for ambiguity on that story which has attracted quite a fair amount of reaction on social media.

Anyway, moving on and we have the small matter of our £1,000 giveaway. Our winner is...at the bottom of this email. (That's what they call click bait – but seriously, the winner is at the bottom of the email).

We also gave away a pair of tickets for All Shook Up: Elvis meets Shakespeare at the Market Place Theatre in Armagh. Our winner for that competition is Orla Reynolds. Congratulations Orla, we'll be in touch via email with the details on how to get those tickets.

Here are the headlines from the last couple of days..
