February 29th may not be a very propitious day to write a newsletter – it may only be read every four years! But March will be here tomorrow bringing with it St Patrick’s Day and Easter within a few days of each other!
If you are thinking of celebrating either or both of those dates with Ummera Smoked Salmon or any of our other products, then please let us know as soon as possible. Remember, that Easter Week will be only three effective working days; as St Patrick’s Day is on the Monday 17th., and Good Friday is at the end of the week, that just leaves Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday for us to deliver to you.
So please go to www.ummera.com and put your order in NOW!
Last Friday, RTE’s Nationwide series showed a 6 minute film on Ummera and what and how we do it. If you missed it, or would like to see it again, you can view it online at:

If you can’t view it, we can send you a CD of it with your next order!
