Oh and no newspapers either.
Some milks (I forget which but UHT is fine) taste ghastly with coffee or tea.

Re: Wot No Milk?

Farmers are having to pour milk away because it can't be collected.

It'll only be a few days, soon be back to normal.

Re: Wot No Milk?

Hi

The milk tankers were OK here, the problem was getting it out of the diaries, the artics could not travel.

I saw a lot of crashes this morning, very icy in parts.

Dongles, I drank nothing but goats milk for over 20 years (I kept goats ), and it tasted very strange when I had to rehome the last one, and go back to cows milk.
I did find the milk varied slightly according to what they'd been eating though.

Which leads me to wonder if human babies notice the different taste in their mother's milk if Mum has eaten certain foods? Hmm .......

I don't know sweetie pie, it depends on your taste doesn't it.
You might even enjoy it more - or not.
Do let me know.

Funny old characters they are, I love 'em.
A VERY old photo of a couple of 'em being playful.




This was a very pretty little youngster:

They give people, with eczema, goat's milk and people think that it also helps with psoriasis and asthma.
