Wonder if it was this Mario you mentioned. Living up on the top flat at 19/7 Oxgangs Avenue, you'd hear the dingdong tune as his van came into the car park and beg for some money from mum or dad or if you were already playing outside you'd shout 'MUM!' hoping she'd hear and come to the window and throw down some money but usually we had to run up the stairs then run all the way back down again by this time Tony was driving away! leaving me standing or half heartedly running after him...this happened quite a lot. Best Icecream though was the '99' with the chocolate flake stuck in it.Alan Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12587669246308336532noreply@blogger.com
