Madam, - We've had to wait a long time for an Irish Timescolumn that offered just a little flavour of Myles na Gopaleen at his best but Frank McNally, bless him, has done it with his splendid piece on Patrick Kavanagh, Pat Kenny and the Dalkey land dispute (An Irishman's Diary, April 10th). - Yours, etc,
TIM MAGENNIS, Killiney, Co Dublin.
