The New Murrey and Blue blog

I am hopelessly addicted to icecream. It’s one of my Great Weaknesses, and now I learn that Richard III has one named after him. (Ha! I’ll bet you thought I was going to say it was his Great Weakness too!)

Go to the Leicester Mercury and you will find that “…. Independent Leicester city centre business Gelato Village has scooped the title of best dessert parlour in the entire Midlands….”

Richard’s icecream consists of “fruits of the forest with homemade rose blossom essence”, which sounds yummy to me. I can imagine sitting there, on a dreamy summer evening…wishing that Bosworth had gone the other way….

I wonder if Henry VII has his own icecream too. Flavours? Crab apple and stinking iris….?
