A tale of ice cream

Friend or foe

I don't really know what this is or who created it, but I do know I love him! (Assuming that it is in fact a 'he').

I would love to know if he is a one off or if there are more out there clinging on for dear life to lamp posts across the UK

I stumbled across this one in Covent Garden, London last week but will be keeping my eyes peeled for more!
