The eagle-eyed among you will notice Ann Ingle’s name missing from the bottom of this piece. Our esteemed editor hasn’t retired or run off to join the Foreign Legion. Instead, she has given me, humble scribe Brian Kelly, the task of editing the latest edition of NewsFour.

I don’t know what I have done to deserve the honour, but I am very grateful to Ann for letting me sit in her chair for the past few weeks.

It’s been a lot of fun putting the paper together and I hope you enjoy our August issue. I think there is plenty inside to keep you informed and amused about recent and not so recent events in our locality.

Apologies by the way, to readers who have been trying to access our website (www.news4.ie) recently. It has been out of action for a few weeks but we are glad to report that the fault has been corrected.

Normal services will be restored for our next edition with Ann back in the hot seat. In the meantime, we love hearing from you, so keep your letters, articles and comments coming in.
