Madam, – Subtle interrogation techniques practised at Dublin Airport Passport Control:
“Hello,” I say.
“Hello.” He looks at my passport. “Paddy Stapleton’s dropped”.
“What?”
“Paddy Stapleton is after getting dropped, John O’Keeffe is gone into the corner, O’Mahony is centre back and Paudie Maher is moved to the wing.”
“As long as we bate the Banner,” I say.
Altogether a very pleasant experience, as long as you know your hurling! – Yours, etc,
