Ice Cream For Crow

Here I am enjoying a delicious diabetic ice cream in sunny Swanage, where we visited Doctor Love for a herbal consultation, poker classes and gallons of red wine. There could be bad news for the diabetic ice cream industry though: scientists claim to have cured diabetic mice by wiping out their defective auto-immune cells and thereby allowing them to produce their own insulin again. Sounds promising, but I imagine it will be a while before the process is approved for humans so in the meantime I'm seeing what Goat's Rue can do for me.

Inspired by a post on Callaghan's blog earlier in the summer, I finally got some pictures of the ice cream van at Surrey Keys shopping centre. Is the bear of very little brain suffering from some kind of wasting disease or is this simply an attempt to sidestep copyright? Interestingly, D.Duck seems slightly more resistant to the illness and/or litigation. I'm keeping my eyes peeled for further examples of badly executed Disney characters promoting ice cream.

For good measure, I'm also throwing in a picture of Radar's underpants flying high above a pin the tail on the donkey on Brighton beach last Saturday. Enjoy.
