We used to have a Corona delivery man who brought cherryade, Limeade and Lemonade. I can't remember if he brought Cresta as well.

I used to love Cresta when I was little. They had a cream soda flavour that I adored at one point.

You'd think someone would have resurrected the idea of bringing food to people in a van. I know that some milkman have reappeared but it's not that popular.

Re: Things You Just Don't Hear About Anymore.

There was an Icecream man who lived t'other end of the estate who had a trike with a large container on the front, filled with dry ice. He had a large hand held bell, so when he stoppped, as he frequently did, out would come the bell and in the shortest possible time he was surrounded by us kids clamouring for some icecream.

He disappeared after a couple years though when he was superceded by a 'Mr Whippy' van. Even our cat got to recognise the chimes and would rush and sit in the queue patiently waiting for 'his' icecream too.

How much did he have to pay for his UJ?
