Genuinely didn't know.. Don't think there's any where I am. Do they still deliver pop? It's been 33 years since I went milking.

I think my lad still has a milkman, no idea who though.

Don't know of any pop deliveries though, which is quite odd considering the amount of the stuff that is consumed these days, but people now tend to go for the big brand names, which is a shame.

I was thinking the other day when the world cup started, if you see someone advertising at the world cup, they are probably the brands you shouldn't be buying from. If you really want independent trade.

Still milk rounds where I live.

Family business when I was a kid was two milk rounds. Gold top milk and chocolate milk was my favourite.

We used to deliver all kinds of milk, pop, fresh orange juice, eggs, bacon, potatoes, newspapers. One of them included fresh bread from the bakery that morning. The other was too early for the bakery stuff.

Loved working them when I was a kid. Stood on the back of the old milk float whilst organising the next crates produce for the next street.

Unfortunately the supermarkets just undercut us until it wasnt worth it anymore.

Good to see you're still going strong, Ernie <ok>
 
Not too bothered if I miss the Scotland game, as they have two better fixtures to come and they are both at 11pm, so a better time than early morning. If Scotland want to get out of this group, they need to beat Haiti and beat them heavily - if they can't do that then I'll be glad I hadn't stayed up or woke up for it anyway.
