Good morning and hello all our new subscribers this week. You're probably fortunate enough not to have received last week's newsletter giving the – I quote – "glaring typos" duly pointed out by my wife...after the fact. She's great like that, keeps me right! But she loves the newsletter so big shout out to Melany. Anyway, I'm hoping this week's effort is not as bad. Firstly, a big thank you to all our new members (nudge, nudge..sign up here). We gave away two nights at the Central Hotel in Donegal, breakfast and dinner included. That was won by Ann Ogilby from Portadown. We eventually tracked her down and she was delighted – as were we. More member giveaways to come. See sign up above :)***Here at Armagh I, we're a small team and we try our best to cover the news, speak to as many people as we can. Yesterday I spoke with Sandra Larmour, the mum of Jeni Larmour, who tragically passed away after her first night with new friends at Newcastle University last October. This was one of the hardest conversations I've ever had – a utterly tragic loss for Sandra. Heartbroken. Missing her daughter dearly. Understandably upset at the sentence handed out to a man found in possession of drugs, which ultimately cost this young 18-year-old her life. A life that promised so much. If you haven't read it already, please put it on your list of reads at some point today...
