'Ridiculous' post prices slammed
A flower mail order firm says it could be forced out of Guernsey by increased postal charges this year.

Nigel Batiste of Celebration Flowers says Guernsey Post's prices are "ridiculous" and he may move to the UK.

Flower Express also says its sales are 20% down on previous years due to the extra postage costs.

Guernsey Post says prices are dictated by the Royal Mail and a cheaper rate for packages would have to be paid for by other customers.
