Carlisle Guide Issue 38 Jan/Feb
Welcome to our first issue of 2018 and a very happy New Year to all our friends, readers and advertisers.
I hate New Years resolutions. We might as well be honest, most of you have probably already given up on them by now. I prefer instead to compile a list of a few, realistic, things I would like to achieve in the coming year. This year it would appear that I’m doing the Great North Run in September (how did that happen?) so therein lies my first objective for 2018, take up running.
But if you’re looking for something a little less strenuous, and a lot more enjoyable to get your teeth into this year, you needn’t look much further than Carlisle itself. On page resolve to rediscover the many things that the city has to offer, from little days out at Talkin Tarn to big nights in the city’s thriving music venues.
2018 is set to be an exciting one for a number of reasons. There’s another great line up of music and comedy acts coming to Carlisle, all highlighted on page . But it is also the year we mark the centenary of women (over 30, that is) first being given the right to vote. To celebrate, over the course of the next 12 months, a number of exciting exhibitions will be popping up around the county, showcasing the inspirational women of Cumbria and the remarkable feats that they have achieved throughout history. Pay a visit to as many of the local museums as you can (page 8 ) as they all promise to give a very different but equally fascinating interpretation of women in the county and are sure to inspire any woman today to follow her dreams.
Whatever your plans, hopes and goals are for 2018, we’ll be here throughout the year, with the very best of everything that Carlisle has to offer.
