Farewell IDMers

Flashdancer — Thu, 08 Jul 2010 15:04:49 +0100

Hello IDMers!

After a wonderful two years of working on the BEST magazine in the world, I have decided that it is time to move on to a new adventure and hand over the magazine to my colleague Tallulah Speed.

Tallulah is the Editor-in-waiting for IDM and I know she will be a fantastic addition to both www.irishdancing.com and IDM. She is very excited to meet all of you and I know you will give her a warm welcome, as you did for me when I first joined the IDM team. Tallulah has got lots of exciting plans for IDM and would also love to hear about your own ideas for the website and magazine. Why not drop her a message and welcome her onboard by Clicking Here.
