Madam, - One of the discussion topics on CNBC Europe and US the other day was how the price of a pint of Guinness in Ireland had gone up to $6.
The commentators (like most of us) find it unbelievable that anyone in "Old Éire" would be willing to pay that much for a pint. It's great to see that rip-off Ireland can make news around the world. I'm sure Fáilte Ireland is loving the publicity. - Yours, etc.,
