My Saturday with Donncha O'Callaghan: Mum made sure we stayed really tight after my dad died

'We go to mass at 6pm in St. Columba’s in Douglas. If you make a decision to get involved with baptisms, communions and confirmations, I think you’ve got to buy in a bit too'

When I was on 2FM I’d be up at 3am or 5am depending on whether I was working in Cork or Limerick. In rugby you’re up at 6am so it’s not hard for me to get up at 6am every day.
