Sir, - Just once, before I shuffle off this mortal coil, I yearn to experience the sensual delight of walking barefooted on the luxurious deep pile of the fabulous blue carpet on the floor of the Dail, which beckons to me with all the allure of an irresistible siren every night when I watch Oireachtas Report on RTE. OOOooo! - Yours, etc.,
Robert O'Sullivan,
Bantry, Co Cork.
