    Well that's a first!

    Sat here by the pool reading my book and enjoying the hazy sunshine and the much warmer temps than of late and I could hear musical tune playing. After about 20 mins it seemed to be getting closer and lo and behold it was the ice cream van.[msntongue]
    Never seen this before, surely some sort of British import????

    There's been an ice cream van coming round our estate for years. Usually just after the kids get home from school on weekdays

    That sounds like the one that goes round our estate. We did not hear it last two trips over and thought perhaps he had stopped coming, I will listen out again next trip.

    The one in our community has the serving window on the wrong side, so kids have to go into the middle of the road to by ice cream. There's little passing traffic, but it's crazy he gets away with it!

    There was one going round Hampton Lakes for several years, until it was found out he was also selling drugs from the van.

    That;s interesting Liz. We have recently had a pink ice-cream van ensconced on one of the LTR's drive every night on our community which is not allowed under our HOA Covenants……and we are currently looking for their 'business license' which does not appear anywhere…..hmmmm.
