MBM – Apologies

Joe feels like he might make a brew, actually. In these extremely exceptional circumstances, I am unable to write one of my usual wacky milk labels. I humbly apologise. Sorry.
Sometimes, you get interrupted with the offer of a brew when you’re about to write a milk bottle label. When this happens, things often take on a life of their own and events rapidly spiral out of control. Under such conditions, it is only right and proper to give a blow by blow reportage of the very incident as and when it happens\is happening. I consider this to be a full and frank explanation of today’s label. If you have any further questions then I’m quite happy to field them.

Why are you writing labels on milk? It reminds me of being at college when people would write their names on the food in the communal fridge in the residences like that would stop anyone ie me from eating it! ha ha. The best flatmate I had was an anorexic – she never and I mean never touched my food. Her idea of a treat was cucumber slices sprinkled with red pepper.
Ah, the milk bottle labels. Well, the communal office fridge is a place of the most startling controversy. Various teams within a large office space will all buy their own bottles of milk for their own usage. This system works fine until unscrupulous miscreants decide that it’s perfectly OK to use other people’s milk without permission. Chaos ensues.
Then, with a flash of fascistic fervour, some bright spark in the accounting team decides that they will write a label with “accounting team” on and stick it to their bovine lactate. This simple security measure restores a degree of decorum within the refrigerator, sure, but at what cost? Do we really want a fridge full of milk bottles with boring name-based labels on them? Won’t a little piece of our souls die every time we open the magically illuminating door?
But, who can fight this oppression? Only the Milk Bottle Manifesto! You can read more about it, here:

It contains links to some of my other revolutionary labels.
I hope this helps.
