Road Signs In Ireland

Sir, - Should we be supplying all tourists with binoculars to see our road signs or do we want them to stop at every crossroads in the country?

Anyone who has driven almost anywhere outside of Ireland must be impressed by the size and number of signs making your journey that much more bearable.

Here, we seem to delight in the treasure-hunt approach, a national game of hide-and-seek for non-natives, with top prizes including a night in the middle of nowhere.

Are we taking this Discover Ireland campaign too seriously? - Yours, etc.,

A.J. Cotter, Prosperity Square, Cork.
