Hero Milkman

Following up on my recent post about how great milkmen are, I saw this news story about a milkman who saved a disabled pensioner from a house fire, then after leaving him safely with a neighbour went back to doing his milk round. The milkman, whose name is Gary Cant (is it just me who keeps mis-reading that?), said:

I didn't really think about it at the time. I just did what I suppose most milkmen would do.

He's being given an award today by the Dairy Farmers of Britain. So I've decided to award him the Bean-Sprouts Medal of Honour as well.

Shame the milkmen seem to be a 'dying out' trade - now that the supermarkets sell milk
