You know...I remember when we got two deliveries A DAY. One in the morning and one in the mid-afternoon. That was a long time ago, though, and it ended while I was still a child (around the time the milkman stopped coming).

I remember that too. Back around 1970.

Yes, that’s about right...1970 or so is when it stopped. Maybe a little before. We were in NYC (Queens), but when I was an adult working in Manhattan, businesses still got 2 deliveries/day right up until at least 1986 or thereabouts.

Don’t know if that’s still the case.

Regards,
