Sir, - It is with some amusement that I am given to ponder on the public relations training received by gardai when training in Templemore. Earlier this week,as I was going up Kildare Street, I passed by three huddled gardai outside Leinster House, locked in mortal conversation. "Oh, sure yer man is a right gobshite," guffawed one of them. Some 10 minutes later I passed them again, on my return journey. A true gem caught my attention: "Sure yer wan wouldn't know her arse from her elbow."Do gardai receive tourismrelated training? Is it part of their job to stand about swearing in an authentic Irish manner? Fair play to them! - Is mise, D. Walsh,Dublin 8.
