A busker's story

The Sandy Close Group have brought Halloween back bigger than before at the Petersfield Bookshop, over three days -  29, 30 and 31 October - hoping to top last year's 1,000 jumping attendees.

Justin Ballard tells us the plan - but not all of it  - and also talks about his tool and kitchenania business (on Chapel Street) in the new layout of the Petersfield Bookshop. 

The Bookshop's Rob says on the changes made, “the more they change the more they stay the same.”
