Streamline Tricycle Serves Ice Cream in the Streets
Ice cream is dispensed in the streets of London from tricycles equipped with streamline bodies which extend over the tops and sides of the vehicles. The top of the body forms a “counter” to hold the dispensing equipment.
I’ll have mine in a dish, thanks. (eating it in a street makes it taste all asphalt-y)

I’m disappointed they didn’t explain what’s up with that hat.

I think the things in her hair are ID cards/cardkeys - overflow form her belt, etc. You need a lot of secure building access to vend ice cream well.
