Celebrating Carnoustie

Madam, - In honour of the glorious achievements at the British Open Golf Championship, may I propose we celebrate with a "Carnoustie"?

To order same, ask the provider to pour a double Irish, in honour of Rory McIlroy and Padraig Harrington.

Then, in memory of Padraig's playing of the 72nd hole, ask for a splash of water - not once, but twice.

Then toast winners from North and South. - Yours, etc,

BRENDAN TREACY,

Drumree,

Co Meath.
