Things I haven't heard in a long time
 
An ice cream van just drove past. Have heard/seen one of those since I left the UK!

We get those regularly. They come late at night, weigh about 20 tonnes and have a sodding great blade on the front.

Those huge big Whippiez have about a 200% over run (amount of air whipped in) so you're actually only buying 25% as much frozen foam as it appears (not that I'm biased or anything).
