Former Ireland captain Brian O’Driscoll said taking the painkillers Difene and co-codamol “almost became like habit
On occasion a sporting type will
Need assistance from a little pill

Will recede once again
But too much will make you quite ill

Don’t worry, he lied
And it turns out nobody is dead

Fast track apartments announced by Minister for Housing Eoghan Murphy (above) may not be built until 2020
This morning the newspapers say
There’s going to be a delay
Before we build flats
Though I’m certain that’s
Something we’ll get round to, someday

A stout-hearted maritime crew
Have rather an odd job to do
For week after week
They’re planning to seek
Some lumps of the world’s biggest poo
