milkman
do they have milkmen in Oz, like they do in UK, where they deliver the milk to your door in the mornings or not. Just a thought, was wondering how much difference there is

The climate isn't really conducive to it anyway - far too hot to leave milk outside.

Re: milkman
Being a milkman is a dying trade since supermarkets have extended hours and see milk as somewhat of a lossleader. Being a milkman has little future.
