According to my PC, it's 4 degrees C & an ice-cream van has just turned up - I'm timing how long it takes for him to leave...

...Ok, he was here for 35 seconds!

Is it me?

No Sunday Dinner thread today????

We used to get an ice-cream van year-round, so you didn't mind buying from him in the Summer as he wasn't just cashing in on the fair-weather punters.

We don't get ice-cream vans down our street.............by the time all the zimmers had made an appearance he'd have buggered off anyway...........

And I would have thought that sales of food items that don't require chewing would be good on your street :-p

Mrs MM who is a Yorkshire Lass calls me nesh. She translates it as "Southern Softie"

do you tell the kids that if he's playing a tune, it means he's ran out of ice cream?

i am ashamedly guily of that on a few occasions when they were very young!

lol chuck..............never thought of that. I don't think our residents would go for a Mr Whippy or a Mr Softy.

Hi crisgal - no kids of my own, but there are loads of the little...darlings...around here! I don't understand why he'd turn up when they're probably eating their meal before going to bed? But I know nothing about kids, so am probably wrong - though I imagine them with a faceful of veg & hearing the tune... Tee-hee!!

pmsl@crisgal ... nice one.
