Thing is... The link between Ludlow's Mr Wall and his winning sausage and ice cream is an interesting one. He's not the same Mr Wall of industrial Walls sausage and ice-cream. But Walls industrial sausage and ice-cream are or were the same. Butchers and Ice cream makers??? strange combination. Not really, in the first instance, in the early 1920's making ice-cream was a summer sideline to keep the factories busy. The "stop me and buy one" format was pioneered with 3 wheeler handcarts in the streets.
I can't find the references to document the transition at the moment, but it was in the 1930's that "Mr Whippy" style whipped ice "cream" was invented... and this used pig fat.. lard excess to industrial meat production. Full industrial integration had been achieved, and packaged up so the consumer saw no difference, or the difference was better in some new and "delicious" way. Such is the way that industrial food crept into our diets and lives.
These jingles that Tim Pickup has put together are now cultural icons, full of food meaning and food memory

Billed as "Britains Wackiest Food Event", Green-Bean had to take part in the SAUSAGE TRAIL at the Ludlow food and drink festival.
Truly an excelent experience, delicious sausages and wonderful help from George and his Mum, Jane!
Steve (George's Uncle), with his funny ideas about roadside caffs gets a comment from the Sausage King Check out his wicked website people!!
I'm looking forward to interviewing the Benbow he's anxious to be properly represented. There's mileage in the debate about the quality of sausages. Use the comments box below to air your views.
There could be trouble as the mob find the "experts" choice hard to swallow!!

This is a long one (30mins) and pretty sparse, its a real time adventure so download and listen... would be a nice antidote to an urban commute because its all about environment, the wild ambience and space of the Pembrokeshire coastline. Will suggested putting a sound track... I like the silences, but i'm really open to remixes!!
The simply amazing bright full moon let me little sleep, despite a long day in Ludlow, a drive back and a skinful of ralphs seidr . I woke up early on the campsite at Trevalen and went lookin for mushrooms out on the headland. It was according to Dylan, the biggest tide in 20 years and i had to walk right up by the lily ponds to get round. So this is the journey back. Get carried in a basket on a brisk walk, meet the horses, hear the waves, meet some walkers and jump a river!
