In light of the current high temperatures, I'm coming around with my ice cream van.
What are you having?

Please bring gluten free cones! The it's 99 with red sauce.

Double 99 with two flakes and tons of the raspberry sauce.

I've been craving one for weeks now but there are no vans in my area 😔

This for me too please. Delicious.

99 with raspberry sauce for me too. My mum used to always have a single nougat(?)Can you still get those?

SirChenjins · 26/06/2026 16:33

Mr Whippy (has to be) 99 with raspberry sauce (the dark red one, not the other stuff) or a single nougat (pronounced nugget obvs) with Mr Whippy.

You have a point there, maybe there's a national shortage of supplies due to the prolonged good bloody hot weather?

@Davros I'm open to requests, but currently Ice Ice Baby! 😁

I was expecting something more along the lines of Greensleeves or Pop Goes the Weasel. It’s your van though, you can choose. I’ll run out, risking life and limb, whatever you play. Mind you, when I was a kid I don’t remember much traffic around the residential streets

Lemon sorbet, like you used to get in the 1970s.

Now people are talking about flakes, you can stick one of those in please.

BCBird · 26/06/2026 17:51

Loved a mint feast. If I wasn't hluten free I'd have a Biscoff lolly.

StrictlyCoffee · 26/06/2026 17:59

I don’t think you get them any more but a single nougat with vanilla ice cream and raspberry sauce. Or just an orange juice lolly

WilliamsandWatsonTooLateNSoul · 26/06/2026 18:16

Chocolate slider
10p mix up
70s style ie decent amount for my money.

Otterseatpuffinsdontthey · 26/06/2026 18:28

Double nougat with raspberry sauce (a.k.a. known as bats/monkeys blood) please and thankyou.

TheCheeryPoet · 26/06/2026 18:31

A 99 Lemon top with 2 flakes please

Sweetpeasaremadeforbees · 26/06/2026 18:36

Definitely an oyster please. Must look to see if they still do the shells in Morrisons.

Would have been a feast, I bought some for the freezer the other day and was very annoyed to see they e completely changed them! Why oh why would they do that, they had always been my favourite 😕

They're just gross now!

You need to buy Fiesta lollies from Aldi, they’re like Feasts used to be

SourdoughSally · 26/06/2026 18:49

Nothing. Ice cream van ice cream is rank. And don't get me started on the knock-off Magnums etc

ChimpanzeeThatMonkeyNews · 26/06/2026 19:24

99 with nuts. 😋

Shelleyblueeyes · 26/06/2026 20:51

I'm not a massive ice cream person a tub can sit in my freezer for months on end but.......an ice cream van .....a 99 with nuts and chocolate sauce. Yes please I'm all over that.

  1. Flake. Raspberry sauce. Unless they have Oysters...
HausOfHoIbein · 26/06/2026 21:09

Children’s 99.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m an absolute glutton but find that 99s are often massive whereas a children’s one gives an ideal ratio of ice-cream:cone:flake.

Bunnyofhope · 26/06/2026 21:11

Why are people saying a 99 with a flake? Isn't the point of a 99 that it comes with a flake?(8

TerfOnATrain · 26/06/2026 21:25

Cider lolly for me too

NotDarkGothicMama · 26/06/2026 21:39

A 99 with a flake 😋

FridgeJenga · 26/06/2026 21:56

Does no one want a Funny Feet ice cream lolly thing? 😄

OP posts:
Davros · 26/06/2026 21:58

I remember Funny Feet, not sure I ever ate one 😆 A Zoom or Fab were exciting in my day

FridgeJenga · 26/06/2026 22:03

@Davros I find traditional tunes quite creepy, especially Teddy Bears Picnic <shudders>
