Where I live now you are lucky to see one twice a year

Because we are a village though we have lots of mobile vans like..

The Butcher Van
2 Chippy Vans
The Bakers Van
The Ice Cream Van (When they decide to appear)
The Mobile Library Van
The Fish Van

wtf. This is amazing. A Van going around selling Chips...North London needs one asap.

Occasionally. A few times a week maybe.

[Amy Jade]

Twice a day, once about 12ish and then at about 6ish. The guy who does the later one is indian and if I go to his van he tells me I should marry his son :s

[Marsh.]

Used to be once a day everyday, now he's cut down to 4 days.

Nobody buys anymore. Everybody stocks up at costco.

[Benjamin]

I live by a park in the city so no need for a van.

I remember one years ago but I assumed they'd been banned... driving around with a vat of oil? :/

How dare you say that about Vittorio

....they have them round here as well because in a village, it's quite a way from takeaway places etc...I never go though and find them really annoying because they're only there once a week...and if you know that you can only have fish and chips on a Wednesday, then you never want fish and chips on a Wednesday, it's a Thursday that you want them when the van isn't there....

[Slevin]

used to see one all the time when i was a kid. i havent seen one in years around my area.

You have a point there suze... thanks for shattering all my childhood memories to peices

This is basically the same as our chippy van, they come here Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights and they also stop outside the pub too because well we haven't got a chip shop.

Chip vans are amazing, Josy hug me.

Do they sell battered mars bars in yours?

[Shaun]
