Captain Terence O'Neill was Prime Minister of Northern Ireland at the beginning of the Troubles. He "tried" to bring both sides together with singular lack of success. A cousin of mine penned a little ditty on the subject of Terry which he called - funnily enough - "Terry the Pink". The chorus of this parody ran as follows:- We'll drink a drink a drink To Terry the Pink, the Pink, the Pink; The saviour of the Ulster face. For he invented "Invisible Progress" Most efficacious in every case. The verses are hilarious - and very caustic. Annraoi
