Butcher gets his Sunday licence

Friday 12th November 2010, 2:29PM GMT.

Charlie Le PoidevinBRIDGE butcher Charlie Le Poidevin has at last been given a licence to trade on a Sunday – just a day after his plight was highlighted by a Guernsey Press story.

A letter granting permission arrived in the post soon after the newspaper contacted St Sampson’s douzaine about his case.

Mr Le Poidevin (pictured), of Charlie’s Family Butchers, took over the former Johns the Butcher a month ago and had applied to the parish constables for a licence purely because of the change of name.

Yesterday, he was celebrating the latest news, which came through on the same day his story made page one of Wednesday’s paper.
