It’s said that blue is the colour of business.
It’s serious, trust worthy, powerful.
You know The Apprentice? There’s an integral member of the production team who’s job it is just to make sure there’s enough blue in every shot. Those over-saturated blue eyes you see in the boardroom? Yep, down to him.
Why? Because blue is important.

Welcome to the Blu Top ice-cream sandwich van!
They make their own ice-cream, their own cookies, their own toppings and serve them up in a bewildering array of delicious combinations.

Pretzels were layered, chocolate covered peanuts sprinkled, and lashings of salted caramel poured.
We settled up (worth noting that you can pay on a card – even an Amex(!) for those too lazy to find a cash machine) and walked away with quite the haul!
A well balanced lunch.
Very well balanced, I didn’t drop a single one.
