HUBERT McMORROW,
Sir, - Please join me and raise a glass to Sky Digital, for it has achieved something I was told no one ever would; I can finally watch RTÉ in my own living room.
Unbelievably, this is the first time I have ever had a visible and audible RTÉ reception - although I have been obliged to pay for a television licence as I was told the licence was for the television set and did not automatically entitle me to a reception.
This would have been almost bearable had it not been for a recent RTÉ advertising campaign which informed me that I could have all its services for less than the cost of an apple a day. In this part of North Leitrim, however, I have had to pay for my apple and not get to eat it, until now. - Yours, etc.,
HUBERT McMORROW, Lissinagroagh, Manorhamilton, Co Leitrim.
