Question of the Week suggestionsEach week we ask a question. The idea is to generate material that's:
* interesting to read, i.e. we won't get bored of reading the answers after about 10 of them
* not been asked on this site before
* fun to answer
What would you like to ask? (We've left this question open - so feel free to drop in ideas anytime.)

Real incidents involving ice cream vans!Just remembered this whilst reading the obligatory ice cream van posts in QOTW.
Picture the scene: The early nineties - polltax had just been introduced, political unrest was rife. I, a you ng skateboarder was waiting for a bus to get from Walton-on-Thames to Weybridge to go skate the mini ramps in the park next to the council offices there.
An ice cream van pulls up, and asks if I know where the counci offices are in Wybridge, as they are going there to protest against the poll tax. Being an inventive youngster, I said why yes, any chance of a lift? So I got a lift there in an ice cream van.
Story sounded better when I thought of it, but I've typed it now so no point wasting the keystrokes I guess.
