This week our blethers feature The Kelpies - an iconic piece of public art and one of Scotland's top tourist attractions. We explore their roots in mythical, shape-shifting water beasts and in the heavy horse that once pulled the barges on the canal beside which they are located. What better way to finish than with an ice cream? Italian of course! We reminisce about childhood memories of pokey hats and sliders. Guaranteed to have you heading for your local ice cream parlour or gelateria if you're affy posh!
