Outside St Michan’s Church, Dublin yesterday after thieves vandalised its crypt and removed the head of an 800 year old mummy known as ‘The Crusader’
On Sunday some dickheads climbed down
To a crypt in the heart of our town
And then for a lark
What they did in the dark
Would make anyone civilised frown

This is awful. I’ve done that tour a few times and the stories behind the skeletons, how they lived and died are fascinating.
I heartily approve of Moynes’ condemnation in the form of strong words like dickhead.
What is wrong with people that they would do this? I was really sorry that I never got the opportunity to visit before they were vandalised the first time (mostly because I live in London), and now I’m gutted that I still haven’t been :-(
