GERRY O’BRIEN, the ever-popular former manager of The Churchill Arms pub in Kensington, will return to the watering hole next month.
The Clare native retired from his role at the pub in 2017, more than 30 years after he first took up the managerial role in 1985.
In the six years that have passed since he moved back to Ireland a book has been written about him, which will be launched at The Churchill Arms next month.

Over the course of the day Gerry and Tim will be on hand selling and signing their book.
