that rich choccy ice-cream sounds delish :D! Wonder if it could take on Ben & Jerry's?

soak dried fruit in alcohol and mix in to single cream and sugar to taste. Stick in freezer and stir. After 1 week it still wont be frozen but eat anyway....Hic

Hmm, the one I usually use is:

1oz of pestering parents
10 steps to car
a little dash of running to the shop
2 minutes to find Ben & Jerry's
a dash of running again
10 steps to house

and wala!
Lovely ice cream for only a few pounds! <3
