Delivery for Daisy

Milk is an issue on these hot days.
Most people are drinking cold juices and ginger beer and old fashioned lemonade.
That sort of thing.
I have made one hot chocolate in the past three days.
There've been a handful of lattes. Nothing like our usual number.
So less milk is needed, right?
And yet yesterday I ran out.

So when Andy the milkman came today with my delivery I asked if he had any extra pintas on his van. Everyone had felt the same on his round so all his spares had gone.
We pondered.
Could I get through to Friday with what I had?

Then Andy came up with a solution:
"I'll bring more tomorrow, " he said, "I've got to pass this way to drop off some bull semen."

Yes. I'll make sure I check the label....
