Best yet pub story!

According to Geoffrey Wheatcroft's new book on the Tories, Margaret Thatcher invented Mr Whippy Ice Cream.
Well, perhaps not Mr Whippy itself, but certainly the ice cream that can be squirted from a nozzle. And several sources agree at least on the fact that she worked on "testing ice cream and pie fillings" whilst working as a chemical researcher. Funny ol' world, eh?

Margaret Thatcher, yesterday. Possibly.
