Milk Miles.
Our milk is still delivered the old fashioned way - on a milk float, in pint bottles, right to our doorstep. This service has not changed much since they did away with the horse drawn trap carrying milk churns.
As we were going away for a day, I had occasion to call the dairy to cancel a bottle of milk.
Imagine my surprise to find myself talking to a lady in a call centre in Manila. My request was handled efficiently, but rather slowly due accentual differences between the language as spoken in England and the Philippines.
A long range transaction for a simple task.
A pint of milk was still delivered on the day we were absent.
It is the way we are now.
