Ogonnelloe’s Gerry O’Brien Launches New Book With Proceeds Supporting Local Community Centre

Gerry, who hails from Ogonnelloe, is known to us as the former landlord of The Churchill Arms in Notting Hill, London. During his 32-year tenure as landlord there, Gerry served a host of famous faces from the world of politics, sport, and further afield, including Bertie Ahern, Prince Edward, and a host of professional rugby players. Gerry recounted all of this in his book, ‘Raising A Glass to the Churchill Arms.’ Gerry has a new book which he is launching this weekend, called ‘Gerard (Gerry) O’Brien: My Story.’ Saturday’s launch will take place at the Parish Hall in Ogonnelloe (29th November, 7pm), with all proceeds from the sale of the book going to support the new community centre at the local GAA grounds. Gerry joined Alan Morrissey live in-studio to tell us more.
