I'm going to hate myself for asking, but what do they deliver their milk in?

The cow tends to be a bit big and a bit slow so usually bottles on an electric milk float. Braziers are based on the B1000 towards Welwyn I think often get behind a milkfloat between Sele and Tewin Bury!

4 or 5 in the morning? I'm very loyal to Braziers but we never see them before 9o'clock.

Depends where you live. They do the 'rat run' route very early to avoid the 'rat run'.[:o)]

Sadly, I had to cancel my delivery from Braziers a couple of months ago as the milk they were delivering often had a use by date of the next day and was often sour. I pointed this out to them in the nicest possible way and they offered to change any milk that had gone off, but it was an almost daily inconvenience. They were reliable and pleasant, but couldn't deliver fresh milk. It could be that we were unusual in having red-top.

gone with Dairy Crest in the end as they had an online ordering service and had no luck gettign through to Braziers. the milkman popped by today to confirm the order and the days and said it would be arriving 'very early'. so far so good..

In case anyone else is interested, Braziers delivers milk to us at around 7am on Tues, Thur & Sat and it's in glass. However, Organic is in Plastic.
