Just has some apple pie with double cream  Smiley Smiley

Is it my imagination, or is double cream thinner these days than it used to be (not allowed it often so don't get much to compare it to!)

It shouldn't be as the butterfat content of cream which differentiates the different types of cream is subject to regulation, as for the "top of the milk" the vaste majority of milk available nowadays is homogionised which breaks down the cream content to such a degree that it cannot form as cream at the top of the bottle.
N.B sad git for knowing that but it's part of my job Huh

You can see at my doorstep each morning.
You don't see the cream line anymore at supermarkets etc because it's all homogenised ie heated a little more than pasteurised but not as much as sterilised. You should all be supporting your local milkman ..... if he's still in buisness! Huh  Thumbs Up!

As you work in the dairy industry I'm guessing you use milkstone remover? More for everyone else really but if you can get hold of some (normally large farm shops sell it) then paint it liberally on the rusty parts of your car and the rust will turn to a hard black solid but it won't rust anymore. The active ingredient is the same as in Kurust at about 1/5th of the price Wink
