Caddys Ice Cream

A Memory of Dewsbury.

I loved Caddy's. Sometimes if I think hard enough I can get the memory of its taste, mmm. I remember having a tall glass of lemonade and ice cream and sitting on leather upholstery in the parlour in town. It was such a treat.  We also had an ice cream van came round and the man had a large brass bell he would ring out of the window of his van. On Sunday Mum would give me a dish and ask me to get five scoops of caddy's which we then put on her homemade apple pie. How things have changed. Other memories I have are of J & B's where Santa would visit every Christmas. Also a little tobacconists on Longcauseway called - I think - Finlays. The old bus station with the Bon Bon cafe and photo booth outside. Ann's toy stall on the market - I had a Saturday job there when I was 13 and it was so much fun.

Caddy's should come back.  At a time when coffee shops are springing up all over the place, I think they would be packed out.  Anyone know why they just stopped?
