The Celtic Toiger

It's back! 
It's not quite roaring yet, but it's back. It just needs a quick shower and a bit more fresh air on the balcony, and it will be back prancing about very soon, rushing from the Bollinger hospitality marquis at the race course to the corporate box in Lansdowne Road for the Six nations, parking its Volvo X90 on double yellow lines and generally displaying an ostentatious sense of entitlement, everywhere and all the time. 
The good aul times, they're back.
