In reply to:Obviously, this was in the days when milkmen in horse-drawn milk trucks delivered bottled milk to doorsteps in every residential neighbourhood. That dates the research back at least 50 years, I fathom.
Has there been a major social upheaval while I've been away? As far as I know milk in the UK is still delivered door-to-door using electric carts.
