    Our ice cream van is round 4 times a day wind rain sleet or snow. 365 days a year. Yes even christmas and new years. Think this is when they make the most money.
    Stops 20ft away from my flat which is handy.:)

    Spent £10.50 on a b-day present, £8.80 on coffee and sandwiches for two people :eek: :eek: , then, even worse, spent £43 on some Estee Lauder foundation and blusher!!!:o I'll justify that by saying it will last me for about 6 months and I got a nice free gift of a bag and lots of little make up samples!:o :o:o

    Hey - RVK2 - how was the Da Vinci Code, any good? (Anyone else seen it yet?)[/QUOTE]

    I'm a fan of Tom Hanks and he was weak in this film, wrong man for the part IMHO. Top performance for me was Sir Ian McKellen, albeit too brief. Not a bad film and I did enjoy it, but not as much as I hoped to. I'm a huge, massive, enormous fan of all things secret society etc and this just didn't do it for me. Save your money and rent the DVD lol
