Kippers

Sir: About kippers (Jeffrey Bernard, Low life, 13 June), at breakfast at the Creggans Inn, owned by Sir Fitzroy and the Hon Lady Maclean, by Loch Fyne, according to Brian O'Hanlon in the June edition of In Britain, 'at breakfast it is porridge with salt, without milk, and two king-sized kippers caught from the waters outside the dining room that very morning'. Is some- one taking the micky?
