No milk today ....

No milk today my love is gone away
The bottle stands forlorn a symbol of the dawn
No milk today it seems a common sight
But people passing by don't know the reason why.

These Herman’s Hermits lyrics came to mind as I stumbled upon this barnacled milk bottle on my beach run this morning.

Otherwise a working morning, a visit to the barber in the afternoon and a hearty seasonal supper concluded a cold and cloudy day.
