We had great business because we were stationed right outside Scotland Yard headquarters. In fact, we were so well-known that we were actually picked from all other shops in London to host Britain's first-annual Ice Cream Seller's contest. Over a thousand people turned up, and they actually had to cordon off part of the Thames with a buoyed police rope due to the traffic we were generating! The events ranged from Fastest Scoop to Best Waffle Cone to my favorite--Milkshakes in a Minute. The rule was, as one might expect, to blend as many shakes as possible in a minute's time. I was a champion at this, and quickly set to work, but as I was mixing the concrete, my machine jammed! I was right by the waterfront, and as the spinning increased, the torque was so powerful that it blasted my shake mixer straight out the back of my shop window and into the river!
...Well, not only did the agony end there, but a strange thing started to happen: due to the mixture of the ice cream base, the milk, and the water, a foam started developing that actually pushed the roped-off barrier in the Thames, buoys and all, up the dock! I stared in disbelief as my mixture slowly forced the buoyed rope up the stone steps and into the police headquarters itself!
What can I say.... my milkshake brings all the buoys to the Yard.
