You didn't have to have lived in the country to have horse drawn milk floats. I was born and bred on a London Council estate and we had them until well into the '50s. When they changed to electric floats the milkmen were not at all amused. Ours was a very long road, and with a horse the milkman climbed off the float at one end of the road, and back on at the other!
My best memory of school milk was when we left a bottle of it in a desk at the back of the class on the last Friday before the summer holidays. I think it was early October before it was finaly located, by which time it was in a very interesting state!
