Hi,

I used to work in an office when I first left school and would make my coffee with the cream from the top of all the bottles.
I was the YTS and had to make drinks for the whole office. I considered it my perk drinking all the cream from the top of all the bottles.I want to be credit card and loan free by Christmas 20100 -

This reminds me of Primary school in the 70's.
We dreaded being told to get the milk in as it had usually been left outside for ages and the cream was thick on the top and sometimes pecked!
we used to have the little individual glass bottles with straws......I wonder if that's why I don't like milk now as the thought of warm creamy milk now makes me gag.
Come to think of it Health & Safety would have a fit now!
I hated it and used to give it to the school poodle (who was half-blind and bad-tempered).
Health & Safety wouldn't like that either.
We also used to have a wild squirrel in a cage in the classroom.A kind word lasts a minute, a skelped erse is sair for a day.0
