The burning question of the day ........is it an iced lolley or a lolly ice ?

[Alex321]

Ive Just been chatting to a guy that has moved up from the south. He confirms that down sarff its iced lolly......oop north its lolly ice.

No, not "oop North", just Liverpool. There is a lot of Oop North that isn't Scouse land.

There are always exceptions to every rule.

Liverpool being the exception

Not as such. They were made by Lyons Maid, who no longer exist. I do remember them well.

Similar things made by Walls or Supermarket own brands are usually called something like a Fruit Split. Or Soleros if you can get the right flavours.

Bollocks it is. I am from oop north and it is ice lolly.

Yes, I am from up up north and have never heard of it 🤷‍♂️

Yes, you.

@Dave7 You are Yoda

Hrrmmm. An ice lolly and become cool you eat. Hmm.

 

[Mad Doug Biker]

Actually, I had my first ice lolly for years on Monday there (some orange thing with an ice cream centre) and the guy selling it apologised for it being so expensive.

How much was it?

It was £2.

Yes, £2! I thought he was about say something like £8! 😆

Now, not being an ice lolly person, I have no idea what is deemed expensive and what is not and quite frankly, I was left just a little bit bemused. 🤷‍♂️

That is interesting, it being a scouser thing. So, as a scouser I can say I've never hear of ice cream being called cream ice.
NB
Could it be that us scousers are right and the rest of the world id is wrong ??

Do scousers keep these in the freezer?

There is the point that expecting the English Language - and especially the "common usage" of it to make logical sense
is a way of saying you have never really looked at it

Not sure I have ever seen one - think I have heard of them!
