For Danny Murphy and many other Monaghan people on Monday last, the first cut was the sweetest as life after the worst of lockdown began with a good haircut. Danny was one of the first clients at Shane Murphy’s The Baron’s Nest tonsorial emporium in Glaslough Street in Monaghan as he and other local barbers and hairdressers got back to business for the first time since Christmas. © Rory Geary/The Northern Standard
