Fun capture, Karen, and wonderfully sharp detail.

I love seeing signs like this one. Nice capture of the moon, too!

As an aside.
I knew Australia was third in the consumption of ice-cream stakes, but got a shock when I saw who is first...

Brrr.... you keep that cold weather up there, lol! Wonderful shot. I'm craving ice cream now!
Greg Harp08-Feb-2006 04:44
Humorous message. (Is this aimed at the business or prospective customers?) In any case nice find. A bit of trivia for you: Frozen custard is served at 26 degrees (F) while ice cream is served at 10 degrees (F). Perhaps frozen custard is a bit more acceptable at cooler temps? Here in Minnesota many Dairy Queen restaurants remain open year round--and do a booming business selling ice cream even in the depths of winter.

Summer is right around the corner Karen. Nice capture.

What a great sign & sharp as a tack...you have to love that Panny !! Not had frozen custard but I like frozen yoghurt
Elaine (etfitz)08-Feb-2006 01:41
I don't think I've ever tasted frozen custard. Too cold for me!
Guest 08-Feb-2006 00:24
damn its cold up there...it was a tolerable 47 and sunny here today...that sign makes me cold :)

Your signs are fun, Karen. And one of the joys of PBase is the unravelling of these 'foreign' phrases. As Al says, warm custard is yummy on fruit pies!
Sheila07-Feb-2006 23:39
Great advert and a good shot of it. I'd love to try it.
Is it actually custard or ice cream? Of course if you freeze real English custard, (eggs, cream, sugar) it is real ice cream..

Could spring be in the air??
Al Chesworth07-Feb-2006 22:01
CUSTARD, I like it hot on apple pie.

That is great....wonderful advertisement! One does sound yummy!
Buz Kiefer07-Feb-2006 16:29
Nice photographic reminder of simpler times. I could use a soft ice cream about now.
Bryan Murahashi07-Feb-2006 16:13
Great sign and message. Like the blue sky day and the moon in the background.
Beverly Wickersham07-Feb-2006 15:18
I never had a frozen custard, but if it's like ice cream, there's always room, no matter the temperature.
jypsee07-Feb-2006 15:08
YUM-MEE!! We have custard stands that stay open all year in Wisconsin and Michigan. There's so many midwesterners here in Florida that there are several frozen custard stands here now... hmmm...maybe I need a cone!!
Barb07-Feb-2006 13:44
Nice shot and the sky has the look of cold.
Herb 07-Feb-2006 13:27

Coleen Perilloux Landry07-Feb-2006 12:48
