Newspaper delivery delay is 'worst ever'

The past month has been the worst ever for delays to the national newspapers arriving in Guernsey, according to the on-island distributors.

Peter Henry, of Le Gallez, said he could not remember similar levels of disruption at any time in the past.

However, he said it was a complicated system and praised the hard work put in by everybody involved in the process.

The papers were delayed on Friday as the plane due to deliver them, was snow-bound in Brussels.
