Gunga Din.

Again, I like it but it's not right.... anyway Gunga Din had nothing to do with the GAA. I don't think so anyway.

Correct

Poor clue (inaccurate), should be: Kerry legend with a small microphone takes her to dried grass we hear.

Sorry, but the Guardian crossword editor would crucify you for something like that  :P

And you're not the only one on this thread  ;)

Doesn't matter what it is, if you're going to be cryptic try at least to be accurate.

I've already shown you above.

Your clue:

Kerry legend with a small microphone takes her in the dried grass


Answer:

Mike hashey (she in hay), which is not the answer.

Sheehy sounds like her to the hay not in the hay, so it could be 'we hear', to indicate that it only sounds like it.
