Been to Tesco and Co-op and they are all sold out, all the Co-op had to offer was gold top but that's what I wanted anyway, unless you are after that or goat's milk then you may need to catch an unsuspecting cow and milk her yourself.

Im more thinking of the poor farmers who have had to still milk the cows, and then pour the milk away due to not being collected and also the loss of money.

Talking about milk, a few years ago had our small grandson staying, just gone three. We were driving out west and on the side of the road, were a few containers of milk (left by the delivery man outside a house). "Hey look Tom, there's a Cows nest" I said as a joke, and left it at that.

A few weeks later we were down in England and went to collect Tom from pre-school. He came out skipping a happy beam on his face; "I've told Mrs Johnson I've seen a Cows nest, in Scotland, Grandad".. and there behind him stood Mrs Johnson with a bit of a confused look on her face.. 'out of the mouth of babes'.....

I'm drinking milk by the gallon (a pregnancy craving also very good for heartburn with no need to use medication of any form) and my partner has suggested we buy ourselves a cow instead :lol: There is always a shortage of milk in the house atm due to me drinking all of it never mind at the shops. A 4 pinter used to last us a week and a half now only lasts 4 days.

hmm... may have to call claymores! we go thru some amount of milk! kids love it.. and if i take a mood to drink it.. then well thats 8 liters in a couple days.. *Grins* what i really miss is buying it by the gallon. it seems to last a wee bit longer then.. not much but a bit!

Lol My other cravings have been oasis citrus punch and mini cheddars. Had to be careful with the mini cheddars as i didn't want to put any extra weight. Whatever weight i go up to in baby weight to me isn't a bother its the extra weight i put on that would bother me. So trying to keep my diet as healthy as possible but allowing for the odd junk food if i fancy it.
