You can buy a milk minder from your Milkman. (see pic) this stops birds getting in and keeps milk cool in the summer – good to your supporting your milkman!

[...] standing outside your front door in the morning is that some wild birds have figured out how to peck the aluminium foil bottle tops. Luckily, there is a way around it: leave out 2p pieces for the milkman to place on top of the [...]
