Anyone else get their milk delivered?

We get ours delivered from the Coop Dairy and they are USELESS!!!
Should've had milk Friday - none came.
Should've had it today - none came.
Phoned dairy to check they deliver on the days in question, yes can't understand why you've not got yours love, will get onto milkman etc etc.
Still no milk.
This isn't the first time this has happened either.
All you hear from milkmen these days is how fed up they are that people get their milk from the supermarket - well there's no wonder with service like this!!!

I have my milk delivered, we have problems too, sometimes no milk then sometimes 7 pints at once!

But , we should keep milk men in work, and locals grocers, butchers etc.

The Milkman at The Towers is great.

He delivers when he says, is extremely understanding about not getting paid on time and always collects the empties.

He also does the usual extras at Christmas....have used him for years!

there is always the possibility that someone is stealing your milk, just something to bear in mind since i know people who this has happened to

Not just me then!

Luckily I live near Tesco & am fit enough to fetch milk.

Not if they're useless.

As for the no milk or 7 pints syndrome, it's probably kids doing it, used to know a few at school would go out and steal everyones milk or just re-arrange all the orders. Once saw a ten foot cross marked out on someones lawn in full milk bottles, done by kids I assume.
