I’m proud to follow the Doughty family tradition of journalism and public service.
“I expect to pass through this world but once; any good thing therefore that I can do, or any kindness that I can show to any fellow creature, let me do it now; let me not defer or neglect it, for I shall not pass this way again.”
- Ettiene De Grellet
