（尤指英国的）送奶人 CultureThere are very few milkmen in the US and demand for them in Britain fell when people started buying their milk from supermarkets. However, milk deliveries are becoming more popular again in Britain, partly because people like to get their milk in glass bottles in order to avoid unnecessary use of plastic, but also because they want to get their milk from smaller dairies (= farms that produce milk). Milkmen do their deliveries early in the morning and leave the bottles of milk outside the front door of the house. In towns and cities they often travel in electric vehicles, called milk floats.Topics Jobsc2
