Hi Gerald - I love this haiga, it captures so much for me having grown up on a big council estate in South Wales. That jingle... from streets away... Mr Whippy, Mr Softee and Tonibel! I still love 99s! Thanks for this. Best Lynne
hmmn, definitely the sound of a spring that's early! i saw three yesterday within a mile of each other (at beachy head, not the most obvious stop for a mr whippy!)

Oooh, yes! Well done. And I can't stand that ice cream truck music that's already playing in my neighborhood, too.

Wow- already?!
We don't have the ice cream vans here where I live- most people just go to the mall!

Lucky you! We do not have those where I live.
That's definitely a sound of spring to me too!
Well done :)
Gerald - a good sign of spring in the city. We don't have ice cream trucks out here, I was just missing the sounds 2 days ago.
