Hear about a Carlisle lady's Rugby boots that have covered every blade of grass when dishing out thumping tackles, scoring try's and making friendships. Listen how a Danish student explains her social life through a bottle of Carlsberg. Be moved by an account of an emotionally charged Cumbrian Production of the "Hired Man" in Carlisle. Hear the sheer excitement of an individual who relished a past role in a Carlisle Musical Society Production.
