- [You said that you've never done coke, but surely it's been around?] Oh, everywhere. I know it's in Dublin, but it's far less prevalent there than it is here. [You've never been tempted?] Nah, no interest in drugs at all. [Ever even smoked a spliff?] I smoke cigarettes and I drink, that's it. But if I had done anything else I wouldn't tell you! (laughs)
