Sir, – Robin Miller (July 16th) wonders about the absence of houseflies, bluebottles, wasps, horseflies, dragonflies, midges, etc, during this very warm spell. Maybe they’re all watching the cricket. – Yours, etc,

Sir, – I can confirm that horseflies and midges abound in the Dún Laoghaire area, as my exposed legs have been ensuring their continued nourishment throughout the warm weather. – Yours, etc,
