First Aunt Bessie introduces cones with mashed potatoes, and now there are these ice cream lamps! No question about it, wafers are HOT at the moment.

But at £38, they are blooming expensive - and you would have to install them as well. I could not be bothered. However, it's good to see there is at last something to brighten green light bulbs - which usually tend to look like they've been hit with an ugly stick.
Right, I wont waffle on any longer... (sorry)
