Carlisle Guide Issue 49: November / December 2019
Welcome to the Christmas edition of The Guide. Of course, you don’t need me to tell you it’s the festive season because you probably picked this magazine up from your local supermarket, shop, pub, waiting room or restaurant and, chances are, the Christmas music is already on heavy rotation. Half of you will be fit […]
West Cumbria Guide 18 October / November 2019
If you’re reading this little intro then I feel obliged to offer a warning on what’s coming in this edition of The Guide. As a bi-monthly magazine, we are always ahead of the game and it’s our job to scan the events horizon so each issue of the magazine is truly a one-stop guide for […]
Carlisle Guide issue 48 September – October
Normally I’m one of those people that sees the Christmas stuff in shops at this time of year and shakes my head in utter disbelief. I’ll sneer and wonder what the world is coming to… before grabbing a packet of mince pies anyway. But I can confirm we are heading into the home stretch […]
West Cumbria Guide 17 August – September 2019
This summer the Guide celebrates its twelfth birthday and a lot has happened since our first magazine went to press. Back then Donald Trump was a reality TV star, Boris Johnson was not yet the mayor of London and Prince Harry was still serving in the army. Ipad’s weren’t around. Neither was Instagram, Air Bnb, […]
Carlisle Guide 47 July – August
There’s no shortage of things to do at this time of year. Summer provides the perfect opportunity for people to hit the streets and celebrate… if not always the weather. Expect to see plenty of wonderful sights as the cities artists come together for the Collective Fringe Festival. The festival provides a wonderful opportunity for […]
West Cumbria Guide 16 June – July 2019
Welcome to the Great British summer. As usual, so far it’s delivered the usual mix of grey skies and maddening rain with a bit of patchy sunshine. Still, a little bit of inclement weather is not going to stop Cumbrians from getting out into the great outdoors. But when you live in an area as […]
Carlisle Guide Issue 46: May / June 2019
Everything is just better when the sun comes out. It was proven by the four days of glorious sunshine we had over the recent Easter bank holiday. Holidays and sunshine, they just go hand in hand don’t they? Good weather means we can plan that barbeque, go camping for a week without the worry of […]
West Cumbria Guide Issue 15: April – May 2019
So Spring is finally here! After a long, cold and wet winter Spring has made a welcome return to us in West Cumbria. Unfortunately I myself won’t be around to enjoy the Cumbrian spring time as I set off to the south of England for the summer months and although I’m excited for an adventure, […]
Carlisle Guide Issue 45: March / April 2019
Normally, at this time of year I’d expect to try and rouse everyone from their winter slumber by promising happier times, big events and sunnier days ahead. The weather should be cold, wet, icy, windy and (of course) grey. It’s the time of year we need extra vitamin D because we haven’t seen the sun […]
West Cumbria Guide February – March 2019
The days are starting to slowly stretch out now. When I leave the office at the end of the day there’s some light left on the horizon and it’s comforting to know the longest nights are behind us for another year. What does 2019 hold in store for you? Maybe you’d like to make it […]
