Now I know things are getting better!

For the first time in nearly two years - we had a visit from the ice-cream van! Playing a rather odd choice of music " The Good, the Bad & the Ugly" ! ( I seem to remember the last time it was " The sun has got his hat on" )

Well, who doesn’t like a good shootout while eating ice cream?

[dave]

It was Glasgow that had the Ice Cream wars I believe

[PaulTRose]

one of our cats stares out the window at the ice cream van and growls when she hears the chimes lol

Strangely the ice cream van has been around here for weeks with his ear shattering tune. How he's got away with it I don't know.

We have also heard the ice-cream van recently. Not seen or heard one since we moved here 5 years ago.

Reading all the different tunes - got to be better than the 'standard' one about here - Greensleeves!

How many people can remember these?

They were common sights on seaside promenades - I remember them at Scarborough, Bridlington, Boscombe and Bournemouth - along with the annoying beach photographers! ( early 60's! )

We have someone uses a modern version to sell ice-cream from on our local stretch of the Grand Union Canal.

Notice no cones on sale from the bike Dave. My Gran would approve as she only ever had an ice cream brick where she could. She didnt like cones for some reason....I always thought they were messy!
They disappeared around Salisbury in the early seventies, so she used to moan a lot after that, but then eat a ninety nine cone LOL.

Not really here as it's getting worst and managed badly. Staying home with the new lockdown. We have the highest per capita for new cases in the world now. Not a way to be number one and ashamed.
