Sir, - Alone among British embassies world-wide, the entrance to the Dublin premises on Merrion Road does not bear the first language of the host country. Perhaps someone from the British Embassy could explain this discrepancy.
Thoughtfully, the American Embassy, just a short distance away, has a nameplate at the entrance gate in both Irish and English. - Is mise,
D. A. O Donnchu, Glaise na Coille, Co Atha Cliath.
