It's true - we ALL scream for ice cream!!

As a kid, the ice cream van jingle was the most hypnotic sound you could hear. After the collective roar of 'ICECREAM VAAAAAAAAAAN' from children within a 500m radius, the music would whip you into a lip-licking frenzy. 

Find parent - hand out - sprint to closest stopping point.

Well Lorraine O'Toole has been one of these dairy hypnotists (nothing to do with cows and pocket watches) for over 30 years. Her business Lorraine's Ice Cream brings joy to the people of Dublin and Wicklow, so we wanted to find out what it's like to have so much power in your hands.

Chatting to Dermot and Dave, the entrepreneur revealed some of the secrets of the trade on #AskMeAnything

She told us how the key to the perfect 99 was, "a good strong hand and a smile", that summer was the busiest she remembers (global warming ehh??) and what song is best to get the punters attention.

There's also some turf wars and good news for all you screwballers out there.
