    Julie Butler and Emily Watts were at the Petersfield Easter Fayre. As the doors opened to the ring of the Town Crier's bell with a flurry of people, eager to take a look around.

    We spoke to the brothers to find out why the Easter Fayre started all those years ago.

    There are stallholders, old and new. Some have been attending from day one, so we wanted to find out all about why they all want to be part of this popular event.

    A great community event, with a real friendly atmosphere.
