Subject: THIS ISLAND NATION – THANK YOU
Just a short note to thank you for the help and support given to me in returning to radio broadcasting and compiling THIS ISLAND NATION which has now settled down to an hour-long programme broadcast on the first Wednesday night of each month from 7.30-8.30 pm on Youghal Radio – Community Radio Youghal 104fm – and which is also available live on the station’s website and podcast there – www.cry104fm.com An increasing number of community stations around the country are also rebroadcasting the programme, which is made available to all community stations. Your support is most appreciated and contact will always be most welcome.
I attach a note of information about the May programme, to be broadcast next Weds, May 7 and which may be of interest.
Again, thank you for your continuing support.
It is most appreciated.
Best regards,
Tom MacSweeney.
