Sorry we
are a bit behind schedule coming to you this month. I went on a
late holiday to visit my son Eddie and his family in North Carolina
and held things up a little. However, I hope you think it’s
worth the wait.
We have two
great surprises for you. As you can see on the front page Helen
Walsh has kindly offered a Christmas Weight Loss programme absolutely
free of charge for ‘NewsFour’ readers and friends.
You may have
heard her on the Marian Finucane Show. Helen really knows how to
motivate people so give her a ring on 2605050 to book your place.
Also, Michael McAuliffe, full of goodwill after his trip to New
Zealand, is offering €50 if you can guess who the mystery man
is on page 10 and are able to write 30 words or so about him.
Elsewhere in
the paper there are articles on such diverse issues as sand cleaning
machines on the beach, the grotto in the flats, the pavements in
Ringsend and the caves of Niaux in France. We also have music, book
and film reviews for you.
Our next edition
goes out in the middle of December and if you would like to send
special greetings to any of your friends or family please let us
know. Don’t forget to tell people abroad that they can access
NewsFour via our website: www.news4.ie.
Sandymount
Community Services/‘NewsFour’ will have been in operation
for twenty years in November. We are anxious to get in touch with
everyone who has worked on the project since its inception as we
hope to organise a celebration. Please ring us on 6673317 or email:newsfourscs@eircom.net
to give details of your current whereabouts.
Have a good
Halloween and keep sending in your stories.

We ran
a story about Annie Conroy (nee Cox) in our October 2003 edition
on the occasion of her 90th birthday. Annie died peacefully on 14
September 2005 in Birmingham. Our sincere condolences to her family
and friends. |
