Fair Play to the Women of Ireland

You can see it in the smiles on strangers’ faces and maybe even feel it in the air (though that could just be the arrival of summer.) Something fundamental has changed in Ireland, something in the very weave of the fabric. Over the past few weeks, though it has gone on much much longer for some, the country has been ...
