E-mails to the editor



Connaught Telegraph 16 October 1996


We have received a great amount of correspondence on e-mail, complimenting us on our web site on the Internet.

We publish a selection of the letters here and we welcome others in the future.

Our web site has been designed and set up by Michael Hambly, Mayo Ireland Ltd, Claremorris. He can be contacted at michael@mayo-ireland.ie.

Well laid out page

Dear Editor

I enjoyed my visit to the Connaught Telegraph website. I found the page to be well laid out and easy to use. The background color while a bit unusual is very easy on the eyes.

Best of luck and my hope that more people will visit your page.
Regards to all

Logging onto Kilmaine

Dear Editor,

How impressed I was to find this page on Kilmaine/Shrule/Glencorrib. It has truly made the world seem small indeed when I can log on and get the latest.

Kudos to designers/writers/contributors - it is clear, easy to ready and most welcome.

Thank you for the service - I have bookmarked it and shall be a regular.

Germany calling

Dear Editor,

My name is Ciara Marrinan and I am originally from Castlebar but am now studying in Germany through the R.T.C. in Galway.

I would like to say how delighted I was to be able to read about all the local news here in Germany.

Everything seems to be going very well in Mayo despite the loss of the All - Ireland.

I am here in Germany with another girl who is also from Mayo - Marie Kelly from Westport . We are enjoying our studies very much and are spreading the Irish news and interests all over Germany.

If it would be possible to say "Hello" to everyone at home through your newspaper we would be very grateful. Hello to all the Marrinan's in Castlebar and the Kelly's in Westport. Best of Luck and see you all at Christmas.

Your sincerely
Ciara Marrinan & Marie Kelly

Bridging a gap

Dearest County Mayo,

I don't think I see a loss here. The Internet has bridged the gap between Wooster, Ohio and County Mayo.

The last month of all the finals have been exciting as I watched on the net for stories and pictures of the events unfolding.

The "Mayo Man" music was 30 seconds of excellent spirit, as was calling into the "Tommy Murphy" show.

It would not have been possible to share so much of your spirit without your Web Site run by Michael Hambly. This is the way it should be.

Mayo you have guts!!
With Best Regards

Visiting Mayo

Dear Editor,

We are looking forward to our November visit to Mayo county from the wide open spaces of West Texas---We live in the largest county in the U.S.A. Brewester County Texas which is larger than some of the eastern states but have only 8500 people living here and the rain fall is less than 15 inches per year.

Thanks for so much interesting info on Mayo
Can not wait to visit

Building the Mayo global village

Dear "Conntel"

I really enjoy reading your pages on the Internet. I particularly like the news digest and the sports coverage, especially the information on the Mayo team.

Thank God for modern telecommunication technology! You are certainly doing your part to build the "Mayo global village", something that I appreciate immensely from my vantagepoint in the corn-and bean-fields of central Indiana.

Many Thanks
