Birdsong

Sir, - What an excellent article by Kevin Myers about our esteemed property consultants (An Irishman's Diary, March 13th)

Sir, - What an excellent article by Kevin Myers about our esteemed property consultants (An Irishman's Diary, March 13th). I was pleased to see him thoroughly vindicated on page 22 of the same edition: Sherry Fitzgerald is promoting a property in Bray on the Southern Cross Road with "life enhancing amenities ... Gardens with real birdsong." Do other people really go to the lengths of providing artificial birdsong in order to make their property more attractive? - Yours, etc., Ean Wallace,
