Where did the cream in milk go?

  • 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.

    Not a fib.

    You used to be able to get little plastic caps for the bottles.

    My Mum use to leave out empty tins which the milkman put on top. i use to feel sorry for the blue tits when they couldnt get the milk lol!

    (strange how the tins fell off sometimes)

    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.
