Milkman's horse

Not much to say on this one as I was only about 18 months old when this memory embedded itself - I remember being held up to feed a carrot to the milkman's horse - that was in the 40s, not the 50s!

Milkman and doorstep milk delivery

Back in the fifties and sixties, almost all homes used to have milk delivered to the door - silver top and red top for most and gold top for those who could afford creamier channel island milk. Seems to me that the milk was always there first thing in the morning. I remember feeding a carrot to the milkman's horse but that might have been in the 40s.
