Late Lunch Thursday December 18th 2025

Late Lunch paid a visit to the Dowd family home in Duleek to officially switch on mum Rosie's simply wonderful Christmas Lights and enjoy a home which is quite simply a shrine to Christmas! Rosie has been bringing Christmas cheer to the village for the last twenty-five years and is loved by one and all for her incredible display. We enjoyed her warm hospitality and the company of quite a number of guests and callers to Rosie's home for a very special Late Lunch!
