Just get gold top/Channel island milk. Same effect.
Personally, I can only have skimmed milk in tea/coffee or on cereal.
Exceptions are coffee - any milk up to cream is fine and Rice Crispies - any milk up to gold top is fine.
I'm picky

Scones + clotted cream + strawberry jam.
Now the big question is: "scones" or "scons"?

So true.
A good cream tea can't be beaten!Scones + clotted cream + strawberry jam.
In the case of milk, it has to be full fat. Once on a farm I had milk before it was pasteurised and that was absolutely amazing, no milk I've ever had has come close, it was so sweet and creamy.
Continental Europeans are weird, most of them drink UHT milk which tastes foul.
Gold top is from Channel Island cows, I seem to think green top is unpasteurised, could be wrong though.
Now then. Clotted cream on a good Vanilla is amazing.

Wrong. Gold Top the brand is from Channel islands. Gold top milk however is just "gold topped" milk. We used to get it, together with full fat, when I was <10yr in London from the milkman. Twas just really rich whole milk, not from Channel islands. IRC it was pasteurised but un-homogenised. Mmmmm lumps.
It's the main reason I'm fat as I used to drink at least 2 pints of milk a day.
EDIT - I am now tempted to make my lunch Channel Island milk + cereal. FFS. Obesity!

Don't like the creamyness of whole milk as it is (Semi-skimmed all the way).
O god don't tempt me...I love them

I don't know about London but gold top milk from the milkman (not the brand) back in Devon was always from Channel Island breeds.

I could be wrong, I suppose. It was normal milk bottles with a golden top. I'll ask my mother.
Ours was from the Channel Islands.
She loves clotted cream too, just loves her Devonshire cream teas
I've seen mention of 'proper hot chocolate', can anyone tell me how to make proper thick hot chocolate? This powdered rubbish just ends up like brown water.
Oh, and add a dash of Baileys to hot choc too = mmmmmm goodness
