    Rant Noisy Milkman

    Hi

    For years my neighbour's milkman has woken me up, so much so I sent an email to Dairy Crest, Mark Allen CEO:-

    "Last night Mark was the final straw for me, for years I have tolerated my neighbours 1/2 am milk delivery in the style of a Top Gear stunt by Jeremy Clarkson.

    It's my view that it's fundamentally unacceptable to be woken up at anytime in the early hours for any form of delivery.


    What made last night especially horrific was that for some reason the drivers truck racks or crates seemed to clatter together like a firework display mixed with a general disregard for anything other than a driver hell bent on completing a route without any care or consideration.


    I live on a private close, there are six houses here and essentially why should we all have to suffer your driver? Your driver's excessive heavy right foot resonates through the houses like he's attempting to complete a rally course in the shortest time possible.


    Whilst I can appreciate that it's not nice to work on a bank holiday Monday, I can say with confidence having your sleep broken isn't a bank holiday must either.


    What I'm trying to say is Mark is that mine and my wife's broken nights sleep needs to stop."

    Turned out Dairy Crest wasn't the right company and it is Capital Dairy.

    I've emailed their sales team twice and nothing happened, not even a response.

    I have mentioned to the neighbour years ago and it immediately got his back up.

    Speaking to another neighbour the other day he said he's also mentioned the problem before.

    Apart from having it out with the milkman at 2am what are my next steps? Someone has suggested that my neighbour leaves a milk crate out and collects from the end of the drive - any other ideas?

    Whats a milkman?

    anyone else waiting for the punchline thinking it was a joke he was telling.

    are you a really light sleeper Chubbs, can you not move to another bedroom to help with the noise.


    Why does "fat chance" and "slim chance" mean
    the same thing?

    Why is your Neighbour getting his back up? Surely he must hear it also?
    I hate tools like this, they go all defensive as if it their own company/service that they have to defend. Sounds like an old bloke to me..

    You should get some footage of it at the very least. You could then start stealing the milk or replacing it with out of date milk. Make it so that he stops using the service.

    Not sure you should imply he dips his cock in the bottles of milk, or put eye drops in them...

    Personally...

    I'd be out there nicking his milk after it's been delivered. That will teach him. But... After the first couple of times he'll be waiting for you. So you'll have to be more ingenious. Even if it doesn't work, at least he'll be awake too.

    Thanks to Geko

    I had to wait for the old dear next door to pass before my early morning wake-up calls ended. The Milkman even had a radio blaring out on occasions!

    Good luck with your quest
    Don't take life seriously. It isn't permanent.

    He will never know what hit him so you won't get reported and I would be surprised if he ever came down your close again !!!
