Sir, – Oh, the holiday delights on offer to us! Yesterday I saw an advertisement for a “Luxury Battlefield Tour” of Normandy. While the idea of a “luxury battlefield” is intriguing and surely well worth exploring, I find the images evoked by the “Immersive Wine Cruise”, one of your Irish Times holiday offers, so breathtaking that I feel impelled to pack my liver salts and sign up.

My only worry is that as a non-swimmer, I might get out of my depth! – Yours, etc,

TERRY PATTISON,
