Ha! I'm a fairweather fenian.
I didn't really go in for the homecoming, I was going for tapas and a pint or two. I only realised there were 17,500 people out in force when the bus was diverted off Dawson St.

That rugby thing was some game, mind you (but didn't get me in tears like when Ireland went out of the World Cup on penalties in 2002).

sure doesnt that speak volumes about the Irish...
we are more moved in defeat than in victory.
