A message in a time of gloom

Sir, – I have just recently driven from Armagh city to Waterford city

Sir, – I have just recently driven from Armagh city to Waterford city. At this time of economic gloom – exacerbated by the impact of the euro zone within the Republic of Ireland – I want place on record my congratulations to successive governments in Dublin for the impressive improvement in the road network.

In time, this road modernisation will be a great asset for the Republic when the European economy eventually begins to recover. The message must be in this time of gloom “No Surrender”. There must be better times ahead. – Yours, etc,

LORD KILCLOONEY,

Mullinure, Armagh.
