Haughey recalls ‘irreverent’ school mag

GERRY RYAN once used the home of former Taoiseach Charles Haughey to produce an irreverent schoolboys’ magazine, Fianna Fáil TD Sean Haughey fondly recalled yesterday.

Mr Haughey, his wife Orla, and sons, Ronan, 10, and Niall, 6, were among the many people who queued outside the Mansion House in Dublin yesterday to sign a book of condolence for the ‘shock jock’, who died suddenly on Friday.

The Haughey and Ryan brothers had palled around when they were students at St Paul’s College in Raheny and Mr Ryan had been in the Haughey’s family home in Kinsealy on several occasions.
