....Somehow, perhaps inevitably, we found ourselves at the centre of bizarre dramas.

Such as the time the rock star Sting, then married to Irish actress Frances Tomelty, had rented a house in nearby Roundstone. Sting would roar through the town, burly bodyguard riding pillion, on a vast motorbike on his way to see O'Toole out at the house.

But that summer's holiday didn't last for long. After only a few weeks, on a day I'll never forget, Sting barged breathless through the door of my uncle Frank's bar at lunchtime. "I have to go! I have to go! Where's everybody? Where's Peter?" he shouted.

As the kerfuffle ensued in the adjoining off-licence, I returned to serving customers. Then, a few minutes later, Sting with bodyguard roared off, never to be seen in these parts again.

Later that day, O'Toole arrived in and claimed that Sting had received death threats from the Provisional IRA and terrified — this wasn't long after the H-Block protest and black coffins still adorned some lampposts in town — he upped and fled back to England.

We all thought it was a terrible drama until I asked O'Toole, grinning from ear to ear, if they had really threatened to kill Sting.

"Did they f**k! But those feckers down in Roundstone couldn't stand him so they ran him out!" Our laughter crackled through the building. "IRA my arse!" O'Toole roared.

Poor Sting....

Frankie Mitchell wearing his tonight again

Dougal Maguire

Sure you're as bad given that you buy one thus contributing to the cause. Frankie, in fairness, probably has his supplied by UTV and therefore doesn't contribute to the cause.
Careful now
