March on with a whippy

Made it to Yew Tree again today with the sunshine even though it was cool. It very quickly went to zero and we departed for whippy factory around ten to six.

In between we managed to visit customers on Barnaby, Gloucester, Hazelbadge and the Bird Estate. Tomorrow we will visit different areas untill it is warm and light enough to try and visit you all.

Sadly, the nasty weather people are forecasting another Arctic blast over the next three weeks brrrr

Lets hope they are wrong (for a change) and anyway, congratulations to the many smiling kids who enjoy a whippy whatever the weather, after all the British thrive in adversity. Keep smiling and remember, a whippy a day keeps the doctor away.

Great start to the season

We finally made it to Yew Tree on Wednesday, it was warm and sunny, the same on Thursday. On Friday it cooled and was cloudy, but we were still busy and it is great to be back.

Today the sun shone and we visited most of Poynton, including Deva, The sports club and most of the usual haunts.

We flew up to Bollington for a quick tour of the regular kids before finishing off on the Bird estate as darkness (and the cold) fell.

Day off tomorrow as have to take No 1 son flying, back to Yew Tree Monday as usual

It's still cold, but

The van is almost ready, fully stocked, fully cleaned, passed mot, just a few more minor jobs to do, checking freezers, checking whippy machinery, should be out and about at the back end of the week after a very long winter.

2013 - it's snowing brrr

It's far too cold for ice cream, isn't it?

But it gets a bit warmer, and a bit lighter every week.

Soon be time for unwrapping the whippy van, full clean down and re-stocking for the new season!!

Check on progress in February

Winter Blues

Sadly it is getting so cold and dark that not enough customers wish to come out in the cold (who can blame them)

With that thought, we will be winding down until after the New Year from the middle of this week.

So for now, may we wish all customers (especially the children) A Merry Christmas and we look forward to seeing you all again in the (Sunny) New Year

Poynton Bonfire 2012

We got off to a flying start after the half term holiday by attending the great Poynton Bonfire.
 !! CLICK HERE !! To visit Poynton Round Table website

Over the coming week, we shall be trading on the winter timetable which means we are restricted by weather and daylight. We will be out and about but not as often.

We will also be putting the hot dogs in over the next week. Weather permitting, we should be back on Yew Tree this week.
