Potholes so big they need a lifeguard to mind them, the Passage East residents who are being tormented by marauding goats, the headless politicians of Longford, the shock as a bin lorry gets stuck in Ballsax, the Dulux dog making lives sweeter and more on Bruce Springsteen's Irish roots - he's been invited to busk in a medium-sized town in Kildare. Yes, another mad week in Ireland's local newspapers, and to guide you through it, our own Ronan Casey joined Anton Savage.
