Review of Final Sale

A lovely little piece about a big man in a small town. Mr Sherwin has seen it all, being rooted to the spot for 70 years and the affection and sweet memories that his customers/friends have for him is touching in this day and age where interactions can be so impersonal.
He sounds much younger than his years!
A nice blend of interviews and actuality there, I can picture the store and Mr Sherwin in my head. I'm going to Google him and his shop now, you've made me interested!
