The Milkman


Graeme Hutchinson has delivered milk on the doorsteps of Market Drayton for 10 years. He worked in the Fine Fare supermarket in Kendal before moving down to the supermarket in Market Drayton. He took up the milk round when the store was bought out by Somerfield. He still delivers to the same number of customers but covers twice as many streets. Graeme initially lost customers to the supermarket but now the biggest loss is when people move away or die. The new residents tend not to want their milk delivered. The average age of his customers is going up all the time. 'One day the round might disappear but some people can't get out. They tell me that they find the sound of milk bottles a comfort. When I know customers are away I keep my eye on their houses as I do my round.
