"I just have a few notes and coins..."

The Central Bank had us all looking down the back of our couches on Monday, when they revealed the news that €350m worth of old punts have yet to be exchanged.

This was sweet music to Bertie Ahern's ears, after he had gathered a bitta loose change over the past 18 years or so.

The former Taoiseach isn't the only well known Irish figure who's looking to do a swap, as we found out on Gift Grub.
