Sir, – In a leap of faith, on the wettest day of the year so far in Dublin, I boarded a bus on Dorset Street that would take me across town to Dame Street. At Parnell Square, there was a recorded announcement informing passengers that there would be a slight delay for the changeover of drivers.
Less than a minute later, the driver announced, “Sorry folks. Last stop. No driver!” Armed with an umbrella, I completed the journey on foot. – Yours, etc,
CLARE BALFE,
Dublin 7.
