Is Fletcher an old word for butcher?

Not that I'm aware of. A fletcher makes arrows. However, Fletcher is a common family name so probably the presumed  butcher's/fishmonger's surname.

Fletcher = person who makes and sells arrows, so I suppose he helps bowmen slaughter others

d’you remember a shoeshop towards the Neil called Ninettes? Josephine mentioned it but I have no recollection at all

@lilbill15 Mystery solved. Ninette is advertised in the booklet that Eggy just added to the gallery. You'll find it on page 2.
