Paul from Richmond Kiosk

Paul runs a small catering business in one of Guernseys traditional coastal kiosk. He talks about how he has built up a well supported and popular food outlet. During Guernseys second lock-down I thought id try to create some interesting content about a group that doesn't get a lot of attention but is full of interesting people and stories. This is my first bash at it but hopefully it’s at least interesting. Hope you enjoy! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
