Sir, - Peter Kiely (January 7th) is to be heartily congratulated. He has got it in one. We really are a thundering disgrace, not least when it comes to our attitude to litter. As a native of Limerick, I no longer visit that city. My adopted town of Naas is no better, with litter louts ruling the roost. My advice to Mr Kiely is to stay in Finland. The dirty Irish can't contaminate him there. - Yours, etc.,
John A. Ryan, Lakelands, Naas, Co Kildare.
