Christmas Order Form memories...Paul comments "Who remembers when we used to give customer Xmas Order leaflets, with date not delivering over Christmas? And who got 'What days are you delivering over Christmas?' or 'I've lost my order leaflet, have you got another?'...and it was the night before Xmas Eve!". Frank Robinson adds "When entering the orders into the round book you would find a leaflet with no name and address!!". Kevin Apps said "Used to be great adding things like cream etc to the order when you as the milkman had over-ordered. Then the customer disputing that they didn’t order it and you saying 'This your order form!'" (Courtesy Paul Simm)
