Late Lunch paid a visit to Mo Chara and what an afternoon we enjoyed in the company of Cillian, Vincent and Oisin, the boys who have created something really special in the heart of Dundalk. The crack was mighty as we enjoyed the banter with the boys, Charles Handy from the Mary Wallopers, Jason McGee an expert in the brewing history of the town, especially McArdle Moore brewery and Brian McMahon whose wonderful "My Kind Of Town" exhibition is on show upstairs in Mo Chara. We also had our regulars on Friday as David Sheehan previewed the weekend's sporting action, Deirdre O'Kane delivered classic comedy and a TV theme proved a doddle for listeners.
