[laurara]

Rummaging around Rara mansions we stumbled upon a book of poetry. Other than a slightly stubbed toe (ouch) we recieved an insight into the childhoods of 400 'Young Poets' from Central Scotland.

Were you Laura Hamilton, Stuart Mower or Andrew Nichol from Bannockburn Primary School? Perhaps you know Paul Wilson, Sarah Baxter or Nicola McIntosh from Bothkennar Primary? Do you STILL hate Mondays, Ruth Cape? Does your dad still live with a hippie at the bottom of the street, Nicolette Spence of Bridge of Allan?

Rara would like to conduct a 'Where are they now?' for all those who have dedicated literally minutes of their lives to bettering the literary world.

Have you got any childhood poetry hidden in some anthology somewhere?

Well BRING IT OUT and let us read it on air!

We will be returning to the concept in a future show: get in touch via rara.subcity@gmail.com or via the forum.
