After much thought I will be taking a break, I have struggled with the nastiness aimed at me and Dad. I am not closing my account as I love remembering Dad. Please be kind to each other and I will see you all soon hopefully with some new pictures xxx

Before this goes any further, just saying I have ignored a lot lately and this is how it starts. George "Geordie" Armstrong was my Dad. Imagine if I called your Dad.. how would you feel?
A more Arsenal man you would never meet...leave us alone.

Just want to say and that after Dad died I wrote to many players, coaches and managers. The very first letter I received before xmas ( Dad died on 31 Oct) was from Dennis Bergkamp. A wonderful warm, kind and compassionate letter. It was handwritten. ❤

Awful disrespectful comments today. Wouldn’t normally say anything but it’s out of order. If you don’t like the Royals fine, your choice.. scroll on. Vile, abuse no … what if it was your Mum or Grandmother yes …unacceptable.

In light of recent tweets and messages it has to be said.... I choose who I see and associate with and secondly I have been Dad's daughter all my life so I know honest trustworthy people. This is very upsetting and hurtful so it needs to stop now!
