We were on a mission. We’d been touring the Cotswolds and the valley, and because we were on holiday, we’d made it a rule to eat an ice cream every day. And because we were on a self-guided tour of filming locations for the movie Hot Fuzz, we’d decided that the trip wouldn’t be complete without eating a Cornetto. In the towns this was simple enough as we’d always find a newsagent that had an ice cream freezer. But as we approached the end of the tour, we’d realised that we hadn’t come across the mint flavour Cornetto. On the final day we’d arranged to meet friends in Milton Keynes, and after lunch we decided to try and hunt one down. We found several shops that might sell ice cream, but not one of them sold the mint variety. Luckily, we needed fuel for the final leg to get home, and as we’d stopped at Tesco it seemed only right that we should check out the supermarket as well. Amazingly, we’d managed to find a box of 4. We went to the local reservoir to consume two right away, then pulled into Stratford-upon-Avon to eat the remains of the others.
