    Live budgie found during cell sweep at Portlaoise Prison
    09/05/2007 - 08:04:32

    A live budgie has reportedly been recovered by prison officers during a massive search for smuggled goods in maximum-security Portlaoise Prison.

    Reports this morning say inmates were locked up in their cells yesterday while a huge sweep was carried out in two particular areas of the jail.

    The search targeted the landing that houses gangland figures from Dublin and Limerick, as well as dissident republicans.

    Eight mobile phones were found, as were three SIM cards, 150 tablets (including ecstasy), a quantity of powdered drugs, a large amount of home-made alcohol and 30 syringes.

    This morning's reports say the budgie is believed to have been smuggled into the prison by a female visitor who concealed the bird internally in her body.

    ... :eek:

    Brilliant!!

    maybe the prisoners wanted it for reminding themselves of the outside world... you know... "if it looks like a bird and if it smells like a bird...."

    oh oh, I have another... a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush, no wait...a bird in the bush...ah I don't know where to finish :confused:

    Where did she hide the bird cage?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,246 ✭✭✭✭Dyr


    A bird in cage puts all heaven in a rage
    but a bird in a cell? that's just taking the p**s

    still its probably the only budgie that's seen the inside of a pussy and lived to tell that tale


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,625 ✭✭✭Sofaspud


    I know how she smuggled it in!

    I had a pet budgie when I was about 7, and I got it in Portlaoise prison. Maybe they are just attracted to the place.
