Sir, - On January 1st 2002, after two years of intensive advertising, we will begin the changeover from punts to euros. By the end of February every bill, bank statement, price-tag and pay cheque will be in the new currency.
Is there any chance that the same planning, speed and efficiency could be used to convert us finally from miles to kilometres? -
Yours, etc.,
John F. Doyle, Mill Road, Midleton, Co Cork.
