Madam, - Booked- or should that have been "Hooked" or "Spooked"? - your "Guide to Christmas Parties and Events" tumbled out of my Irish Timeson September 26th, a whole three months in advance of the feast.
Now, wouldn't it be an idea to bring forward - as the Government has done with the Budget - the Saturnalian orgies, so that the rest of us could look forward to celebrating in peace and quiet the true spirit of Christmas? - Yours, etc,
VERA HUGHES, Moate, Co Westmeath.
