One from the old work files. Boxer Katie Taylor is surrounded by reporters, well-wishers and autograph hunters on her arrival at Dublin Airport in 2012 with Ireland’s first Olympic gold medal in sixteen years.
I recall that the triumphant Olympic homecoming included five other Irish medal winners, but the woman from Bray was the only story in town.
Delighted to see my former newspaper colleagues Mark Hilliard and Conor Feehan hard at work.
