Talking Books - September 2025

The rugby season fixture list couldn't have been planned any better than to leave 5th placed Tottonians facing in their last match 6th placed Petersfield. For the winner, a place in the promotion play-offs and for the loser, an early look at summer holiday brochures! https://www.petersfieldrfc.club/ . In football, Petersfield the men's rams side continue to learn at an exponential rate what it takes to survive in this league. We have reports and interviews from Saturday's game against Hamworthy Recreation https://www.petersfieldtownfc.co.uk/ . For Liphook football, both men's and women's sides are in action but their seasons couldn't have been more different. The women's side are already champions and face Gosport away, and the men's side are battling for survival and taking on the Crofton Saints https://www.liphookunitedfootballclub.org/ . Liss Athletic continue their search for points and with the league being as tight as it is, a good run could see them in the top third at the end of the season. This week they face a tough challenge from Denmead https://www.pitchero.com/clubs/lissathletic . And the wait continues for the Petersfield A table tennis   side. With all their games played, only Fernhurst can catch them with their remaining games in hand. https://www.petersfieldttclub.org.uk/

On a beautiful/blustery morning in the market there’s a real buzz about the place, with stalls setting up, shoppers arriving, and plenty of delicious local produce to discover.

You might hear a bit of background chatter, the rustle of market bags, maybe even the sizzle of something tasty cooking
nearby!

Join us as we soak up the atmosphere of the Hampshire Farmers’ Market – one of the highlights of the local calendar.

We chat to stallholders about what they’ve brought along and find out what makes this market so special, amd we hear from shoppers about why they love coming here.
