They 'target' obese children? What do they do, follow them around waving 99's at them?


Fox - I closed your italics tag for you (after a couple of attempts!)


Yeah the "mr whippy" type stuff (made from water and powdered ice-cream mix) isn't exactly the best ice cream. But kids like it and it's not expensive.


You can get it in purple sweet potato flavour in Japan.. yuck..

 

I completely agree. Ice cream vans sell rubbish ice cream. (I spent my first 25 years in Italy) There do not seem to be many small start up companys selling "home" made ice cream from vans.

I have been told that the "you want a flake on this" style vans would drive them out from every park straight away.

Not sure if it is true

The best ice cream I've (still) ever had was from a small cart which used to be on Tooting Bec Common at weekends, must have been in the early sixties. I guess it was Italian. We used to get one after going swimming in the lido.


Absolutely delicious - real vanilla, and sort of grainy. Never found anything like it since. My mouth is watering just thinking about it :)


Though my own home made ice cream is pretty good, though I say it myself :))

    • Hello! We are relocating abroad and so will be withdrawing our two children (ages 4 and 6) from St Dunstan’s College (Catford). If any family is considering enrolling children of a similar age, now would be an excellent opportunity—we’re required to pay full‑term fees unless the places are taken. Please get in touch if you’re interested or know someone who might be. Thank you!
    • Hi  I really thought I'd seen a more recent post on the forum about home education meet ups. I can't find it though. Hope some of these might provide leads. https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/137603-home-schooling-advice-anyone-wants-to-do-it-together/#comment-1092093 Very old post but group seems still to exist: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/92044-home-education-local-group/#comment-954837 You could try contacting this forum member: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/325368-classroom-support-for-home-education-community/#comment-1621064 Two of these left for right now: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/events/event/1025-🌟-teens-11-try-painting-sculpture-street-art-at-holiday-workshops/
    • Thanks for your reply. I’ve subscribed to Ancestry a few times in the past but felt I wasn’t using it enough to warrant keeping up the subscription.    
    • Hi, I saw your post and just wanted to say that the incident you’re referring to did happen in the late 1980s at Dawson’s Heights. The person involved was named Carl Salawa, and he had just turned 18 years old at the time. Like you, I haven’t been able to find any news articles or official reports about it, If anyone remembers anything more about that time or incident, I’d really appreciate hearing about it. Thanks for sharing what you were told—it means a lot to know others remember.
