Sir, - The Corrs - aren't they great? The haunting melodies, the in-your-face lyrics, the harmony of Andrea and her siblings, the foot-tapping, thumping rhythm. . . wonderful stuff!
I had the unexpected pleasure of listening to their complete repertoire, at intervals, over the past three days - a 10 minute rendition of their works on each occasion, merely by dialling a local number! Further, by judicious use of the "record" button on my telephone answering machine, I am now the proud owner of the Best of the Corrs at a fraction of the price which this would have cost had I ventured into town to purchase a CD.
True, my original intention was to ring Ryanair at 6097800 to book a flight to London - but hey, who cares? What's the fuss, what's the hurry, when we have the Corrs to listen to? After all, there are plenty of other airlines in the phone book - with people at the other end of the line to deal promptly with any request - if I actually want to travel somewhere - Yours, etc., D.K.
