NOSTALGIA: Derry and Inishowen in pictures - February 1997

In February 1997 it was claimed that a gang attack on two American students in Derry had jeopardised the future of an international peace and conflict course based in the city; Donegal drivers who continued to drive imported vehicles without paying the duty were warned they were set to face a massive blitz from Customs officials working along the border; and new President of Derry’s Junior Chamber, Margaret J. Moore, said she had thoroughly enjoyed the experience of being involved in the business lobby which had allowed her to meet a number of people and take part in a wide variety of activities she would not have had access to prior to joining. As ever, the ‘Journal’ photographers were out and about.
