Weather is the theme for Write Out Loud Marsden on Wednesday 21 February at Marsden Mechanics Hall, Peel Street. This month the open-floor poetry night is not in the library, which is being refurbished, but in the meeting room opposite the toilets. Co-ordinator John Ling says: “Bring your weather poems, real or metaphorical, and dazzle or drown us in fine words.” Entry is £2, and it starts at 7.30pm. More details and Map
