I can't get over how much the cost of sending letters to Britain has risen recently. I'm doubting myself, but I seem to remember that a few years ago it was the same cost to send a letter to Liverpool or London as it was to send a letter to Galway or Cork. Now it's 48c for a letter within Ireland, but 75c to send a letter to Britain (same as anywhere else on Earth).
It seems to me that the Post Office expects us to send e-mails and/or text messages rather than sending a letter.
