Down Camogie player Catherine McGourty

If you hit a ball with a stick,
Very far, flying true, flying quick,
Then shout out Hooray,
You’ve won a holiday,
As long as you come with a prick.

Chinese parents tend to have one,
Child, and it’s often a son,
If rumours are true,
They’ll soon allow two,
So get upstairs and have some more fun.

Legalise pot protest in London last month

The Durham police chief Ron Hogg,
Has left many people agog,
He’ll let you grow pot,
But hasn’t said what,
Happens now to his poor sniffer dog.

Marty Morrissey

This morning lets all give a hearty,
Three cheers to our bould hero Marty,
Who gave his best shot,
But somehow did not,
Get his hole at an Olympic party.

Donald Trump (left) and John McCain

A credible hairdo called Trump,
Is finding life hard on the stump,
He showed some disdain,
For the great John McCain,
And gave his own party the hump.

Bertie Ahern leaving the Banking Inquiry yesterday

The inquiry is looking for dirt,
On our glorious Iar Taoiseach Bert,
But his hands are clean,
He departed the scene,
Before Cowen caused all of the hurt.

The mob came and shouted “Make way!”
So the order came from de Launay,
To open the gate,
Then he met his fate,
And died on the first Bastille Day.
