Barry McGuigan - Coming Home

The lounge boy in Paddy Cole's place in Castleblayney is in no doubt. "Your off to Clones," he says. Clones is a small town with a small popu=ulation - 2,500 to 3,000. It has five churches, twenty-two licensed premises, three hotels, and one favouurite son. 'The Diamond' - the town square - is packed with cars. The Lennard Arms Hotel, owned by Barry's family, is booked out. There are glasses and drinkers all over the reception area. The staff haven't slept in two days. The bar hasn't been closed since Friday night. By Orla Guerin
