| Don’t worry Andrew Smith (Letters, 4 September). Even if Brexit makes it difficult for you to use your linguistic skills in France, Germany, Spain and Italy, to sample their wine and food, enjoy their cultures and make friends, there is a country just across the tariff-free, passport-free border from where you live, where food, wine, culture, friendship and another language are waiting to be sampled.
