The rattle of the home delivery milkman's glass bottles used to be a regular sound on urban streets.
So too was the clink of the milk money we'd leave for the delivery boys and girls who ran the streets with a trolley piled with crates.
It seems inconceivable now that we would leave money in our letterboxes, or on the ground, trusting that no one would steal it. But then cartons and plastic took over. They didn't rattle. Times change, home deliveries stopped.
Hukerenui farmer Chris Lethbridge has gone retro though and started bottling milk in glass again.
It comes straight from the vat on his Hukerenui dairy farm and he is hoping sales will soon reach 1000 bottles.
