Sir, - As someone who has followed the normal, well-trodden tourist route to sunny Cyprus but who is also interested in, and always willing to be better informed about, the history and politics of that most distressful country, I would be interested to know what facts the "fact-finding trip" described by Arminta Wallace (An Irishwoman's Diary, October 6th) has to offer in place of or in addition to this one: that the part of Cyprus she visited was invaded by the Turkish army in 1974 and has been illegally occupied ever since. - Yours, etc.,
Donal McMahon, Saggart, Co Dublin.
