Seen a couple up town near Holborn where I work. Not seen any around where I live these days though.
Funnily enough, just looked out of the window and saw a rag & bone man with a proper horse and cart and was going to ask when was the last time anyone saw one of those?!
We have one and he's a randy old sod. I heard he'd had every woman in our street bar one. When I told my wife this she said "I bet it's that snooty cow at No.34....
Milk float hit my car the other week. Made an insurance claim against him. Felt a bit bad as milkmen don't seem to have much luck nowadays.
Was he overtaking you ?
Good one. He had parked in the middle of the road next to my car outside my house. I opened my door and was getting in and he drove off and hit the open door. I now have to slam the door shut and the electric windows no longer work.
As I said I felt a bit bad about putting the claim in against him but he was stupid to park in the middle of the road and not looking when he drove off.
Still have one in deepest Essex but he uses a flatbed Transit rather than one of those electric things. Stopped using the service when the delivery time became too unreliable and the milk got left out all day and either went off or the blue tits broke through the tops and left nasty dirty bits off the beaks floating around on the surface of the milk - yukkie!

Sorry about that.
There is a milkman in our road, but he only delivers to a couple of houses.

Yeah, but that's in Norfolk, it probably an horse pulling it!
Did you write 'an horse' because you pronounce it 'an 'orse'?
I may be mistaken here, but isn't that one of those quirks of English that it's correct to use 'an' before a word beginning with h (Regardless of how it's pronounced)?

It's based on pronunciation. The word hour is pronounced with a silent "H" and sounds like "our" when spoken, while horse for example is pronounced with a harder "H". Hence an hour, but a horse.
