Shop gives up Sunday deliveries over 'unreliable ferries'

A shop in the south of the Island says it's scrapping newspaper deliveries because of unreliable ferries.

Torden Stores on Bay View Road in Port St Mary says it's been forced to make more and more late deliveries of papers on a Sunday because of unreliable or late sailings and maintenance on vessels causing delays getting them to the Island.

The shop says it'll still deliver papers on other days, and says customers can use vouchers to get a Sunday paper from another shop.

In a post on Facebook, the business has apologised, saying it's sorry it's had to make the decision.
