Ah, Janet's? My former next door neighbour. We went to Fredrick's on the A6. I had a scoop of Black Cherry with one of Vimto. Superb. 8)

Bruce. Did you ever come across the two elderly Spanish ladies who sold ice cream on the Balcon de Europa in Nerja? Had a truly wonderfull selection of which my favourite was definitely Limon (lemon). Wife preferred something termed as "tutti-fruti". Superb stuff.

Deepest darkest Hunitingdonshire... Not that huntingdonshire properly exists anymore but I still claim Bolton is in Lancashire so I am continuing in the same vein now. I have just been informed that the misses has been attacked by a pheasant... Just like being back in Hackney!! :)
