I remember when I was little and we got milk delivered to our door every morning in glass bottles. Sometimes I’d wake up early and hear the milk van in the street with all the bottle rattling in the back. I used to love opening the back door to find two bottles of milk waiting on the doorstep and if it was winter the milk often froze, pushing the silver bottle tops up. Supermarkets came along and milk deliveries seemed to get wiped out…
Until now…
We discovered a local delivery man who will deliver milk and eggs to our door every day. No more plastic milk bottles to deal with – our milk now comes in glass bottles that can be returned and re-used!
Today we got our first delivery of milk!
How exciting!
Doesn’t it look sweet…




The only downside is that there are no foil tops for the bluetits to peck off!
True – I wonder how the plastic green tops will cope on a winter morning?
