Chain gang

Chain gang

This is really nice. Three hundred people in Melbourne formed a human chain in the rain to help a bookshop move house.

Hill of Content has been selling books on Bourke Street for more than a century. When it came time to relocate, they asked their community: Would you possibly be interested in helping shift all the books by hand, one by one, up a chain from the old shop to the new one?

Books are our friends, bookshops are our friends.
