Its golden anniversary is in March.
SIR — When my daughter gave birth to triplet girls 10 years ago, I used her heavily beaded bodice to make bonnets, and her beautiful satin skirt to make christening gowns for all of them. SIR — It is not true that all wedding dresses are worn only once. I wore my wedding dress on our 25th, 40th and 50th wedding anniversaries.
SIR — Would the ban on smoking in cars carrying children include convertibles? Shivering in a gale at Peterborough station recently, I was amused to hear a stern warning that smoking anywhere in the station or on the platforms was prohibited by law. SIR — It is absurd for us to consider making it illegal for someone to smoke in a car when children are present unless we also make it illegal for a pregnant woman to smoke. Why not?

The rule simply discourages the employment of cleaners, who pay income tax on their modest wages. The situation was highlighted by an MP using an illegal immigrant for this labour. That is immoral. SIR — I have a state-of-the-art, electric tin opener. It whizzes round and soon does its job. But cannot pet food be bought in ring-pull tins? But it is the planners who should take the blame. SIR — A friend worked in the water industry, beginning with Thames Conservancy and, going through all its incarnations, finished up in the Environment Agency, from which he has now retired.
I have lost count of the number of times he has come back from meetings with planning inspectors about new developments; has advised against building on flood plains; and had his objections overruled. I asked him what he thought about the floods. SIR — When Lord Smith says, to people flooded out, that they knew the risks when buying a house there, he ignores the fact that many such houses are centuries old. I live in an area surrounded by water meadows, from Kenilworth to Bickenhill, and every winter roads and fields flood.

This is the area directly across which the Government plans to construct HS2. I cannot see how he maintains he has no responsibility for what is happening on the Somerset Levels and elsewhere. He is in charge and it has happened on his watch. While his staff may be doing all that they can, the policies that have led to the current flooding were made under his leadership. SIR — I have lived on the banks of the river Darent for 25 years. The emphasis of the agencies entrusted with care of the river has changed from protecting people against the environment to the reverse. The National Rivers Authority had a well-funded flood-defence programme.
Gangs of workers who knew the river cleared the channel every year. Its successor, the Environment Agency, reduced spending on flood defence and discontinued regular maintenance. The priority now is for environmental impact analyses, which might argue the cause of invertebrates but do little for humans. SIR — I was heartened to see troops quickly employed to help residents in the wave of flooding in the Thames Valley. Here in Somerset the arrival of the troops took a darn sight longer.
That says it all. SIR — What is going to happen when the water recedes? The ground will then be too wet for planting. What is going to help the farmers get over this wet winter?

The enormity of these floods suggests that they are a punishment from God. Others have been castigated for suggesting a link with the legalisation of gay marriage or our silence at the plight of the most downtrodden in our society: the elderly, the unemployed or pitiful women and children falling victims to genital mutilation and other sexual violence. Have we forgotten that it was God who wiped out every living creature on earth except Noah and his followers in the ark? Irish Times:. Sir, — Millions of heterosexual married Catholics worldwide are not married in the eyes of their church because they have not been married in accord with church law.
Which is perfectly okay, of course: membership is voluntary and Catholics should know what they are subscribing to. The consensus in most democratic countries has been moving for years towards non-discrimination against homosexuals, including homosexual marriage. Let the churches legislate in any way they choose for their members; the state must legislate for its citizens. Those who know their scriptures will know that the Biblical Jesus said something similar, albeit a different context.
In spite of constitutional changes in the s, Ireland still has some way to go in becoming a secular state. In that sense, the current debate is a constructive and productive one. My question, does he seriously think being accused of owning a BMW is comparable to being accused of homophobia on live television? Sir, — At best, the main reasons for opposing same-sex marriage seem to have emerged from a concern for any children who may become part of that union.
Legal arguments about inheritance and traditional quasi-religious views on parenthood are offered as points of debate on the issue. However, these concerns fly in the face of our experience as a nation. Groups of men and women, brothers and nuns, have provided same-sex parenthood for countless Irish children orphaned or abandoned by heterosexual parents. Boarding schools, run by men only or women only, have been stalwart substitutes for the natural home environment for children who are also placed in their care by heterosexual parents, with many of these institutions still in receipt of State funding.
The sudden anxiety about the moral definition of marriage here is no genuine reason, that, with proper attention paid to legal matters of inheritance, two gay people could not provide a supportive home environment for any child; and a heterosexual marriage is also no guarantee of a harmonious upbringing. Sir, — Emily Neenan February 11th suggests that those who wish to avoid being outed as homophobic may do so merely by refraining from espousing homophobic views.
I believe the current controversy in relation to this matter has arisen precisely because those so named did not air, and do not hold, such views. Is it possible that the right to make such accusations rests solely with those making them, without any right of appeal by those who feel unjustly labelled? My paternal grandmother occasionally left off from her household chores in Marino, Dublin, to confide in me as a young boy her wonderment that none of her children seemed to support same-city marriage.
None of her eight children born in the Rotunda married anyone else born in the Rotunda, or even the Coombe or Holles Street. My granny was a loving woman and I think that while she would have supported same-sex marriage between Dubliners, she would have understood Dubliners who ventured outside the Pale to find a partner, just as long as they were happy.
Sir, — The debate on same-sex marriage has now wildly digressed to claims of victimhood on both sides. Even the titular nod to pantigate belies the argumentum ad misericordiam that both sides have resorted to. Neither being homophobic nor being accused of being homophobic alters the logic in the slightest and any attempt to claim such so far has been self-victimisation. It should be pointed out, with the certainty of sounding callous, neither does having been the victim of homophobia give one the right to marry. It is an irony worthy of Shakespeare that both sides are using the newspapers and television to claim that their freedom of speech is being stifled.

Can we get back to the matter at hand? Should people of the same gender be allowed to marry each other if they choose so freely?

Sir, — Having looked at this issue from a great many angles, I have only found one coherent, secular argument against marriage equality. This is an appalling thing to do to any minority. I would like to set the record straight. Just three months after taking office as Minister, I sought and received, in June , Government approval to establish an interdepartmental group, chaired by then Senator Martin McAleese to establish the facts, insofar as was possible, relating to the Laundries.
Mr Justice John Quirke was asked by Government to make recommendations on an ex-gratia scheme to be established to meet the needs of the women concerned. He reported in May and all of his recommendations were accepted by Government in June. A team of civil servants was tasked with devising the most practical and expeditious methods of implementing the recommendations and reported to Government in October There is a team of nine people in my department whose sole task is to help the women with their applications and answer their queries.
