    (I have been subscribed to the Mallow Star for a little over 1 year. It is published weekly, and I receive the paper in the post about 1 week after the publication in Mallow. It was a great way for me to "get a feel" for Mallow before we traveled there last year, and I continue to enjoy reading about the local happenings now that I have been there. The cost was abt. U.S. $60 for a one year subscription, I don't know what the other papers would charge.)
