Back in the distant past I can remember the sound of the music from “Mr Whippy” as his ice cream van arrived in the neighbourhood.
When walking yesterday I actually came across his original van. Well it looks like the van I remember from my childhood!
Unfortunately he wasn’t selling cones at the price I remember and so he missed on my patronage.
It’s interesting how small facts can stick in your memory. Aniseed balls were 5 for 1p and a bag of hot chips could be purchased for 3p. Going to the theatre to watch the Sunday matinee cost 6p.
