Sir, - Well God love poor Dessie Connell. There's me thinking he carries the worries of all us poor Dubs on his shoulders and now I realise he's more interested in getting an honorary degree from TCD.
Speaking as one of his "offended" Dublin Catholics, I couldn't give a toss if he gets a degree from them or not and I might add, if he wants one so much, let him go back and do his Leaving Cert again! The man's a gombeen! - Yours, etc.,
