Cormac MacConnell: Maggie leads the line on Dublin protest day

Hello to you all on a fine autumn morning.

Let us hope that the slantingly amber ember days of September will be better than the weeks and months we have just survived and that there will be a lot less rain.

On the other hand when I was a very young calf my mother used always tell us on a wet morning that we had been designed to be waterproof.
