THE fastest milkman in the east will soon discover if he is one of the best in the country.
Stan Green, 54, of Warsett Road, Marske, Cleveland, has been nominated for the Milkman of the Year award by his customers.
Not only were they impressed by his dedication to make deliveries in all weathers, but also Mr Green's speed - as a keen runner he sprints from door to door.
Mr Green has worked as a milkman for 40 years at the Greencroft department of Co-op Dairies, in Durham City.
Twelve regional finalists will be selected this month to go through to the final, in April.
The finalists will spend a day with judges, proving why they deserve the first prize of a £15,000 Volvo S40.
