title The Last Milking at Dairy Farm, Thrandeston, Suffolk - 11th January 2007 intro It's the end of an era as another small farm suffers at the whim of market forces and ruthless price competition led by the supermarkets: Dairy Farm in Thrandeston sells the milking herd and closes the parlour after one hundred years of family tradition, with Wavy performing the penultimate milking the evening before the herd is taken away. imgp0862 A cow exits the dairy imgp0865 A cow looks around imgp0866 Cows in the yard imgp0867 A cow stands around imgp0874 The first cows are installed imgp0878 Cows wander into the milking shed imgp0879 Wavy sticks the suckers on imgp0882 A cow kicks off the suckers, splashing milk imgp0885 Wavy looks down imgp0887 Wavy applies antiseptic to the teats imgp0889 Cows in milking stalls imgp0890 Outside, cows mill around imgp0891 A curious cow comes over imgp0893 Dairy Farm imgp0896 A cow looks up imgp0903 Looking down at Wavy in the pit imgp0912 Wavy does more milking imgp0916 Feeding stalls imgp0917 Cattle feeding stalls, which look strangely like urinals imgp0919 A cow's arse, and a milk flow read-out imgp0928 A departing cow looks back imgp0943 Wavy is surrounded by a load of udders imgp0947 Wavy cleans out milking suckers imgp0960 A curious cow licks at the prospect of eating a camera imgp0991 The next cow wants in imgp0998 The cows mill around in the dusk
