I was between jobs and ended up driving an icecream truck. Well to start with I was given a truck with an American 'Taylor' machine. Now to refill this you just lifted the lid and poured in more 'cream' stuff.

After a few weeks of this they changed over to some Italian machine because it fluffed up the icecream more and you could get more cones from a bag of 'cream'. It was able to do this because it was pressurised and you had to release the pressure BEFORE lifting the lid.

Of course I forgot and just lifted the lid.


**BANG**

The explosion spread ice cream all over the interior of the truck including me and my assistant.

Gave new meaning to the phrase 'Icecream Man'
