Fiona McArdle is your host for this edition.

The Isle of Man Poetry Society has monthly meetings at the Archibald Knox public house in Onchan, and there's one on Sunday 3rd December at 7.30pm. Chair of the Society, Bethany de Legh Runciman, talks about poetry and about opportunities to write and perform it.

And as the programme goes out on Laa'l Andreays, St Andrew's Day, we look at the Scotch Kirk and St Andrew's Presbyterian Church in Douglas and, of course, at the parish and its church on the north of the Island - one of the seventeen ancient parishes, though now part of the Parish of the Northern Plain. We return to a recording of churchwarden, Michael Ellis.
