An ice cream van owner has been threatened with legal action over the ‘excessive use’ of his ‘overly loud’ Blue Peter-style chimes.
John Barton, who runs Harrison’s Ices, based in Lincolnshire, was stunned when he received a council letter saying they’d had complaints about his van.
East Lindsey District Council said there had been reports of ‘undue noise’ caused by the ‘misuse/overuse of the chimes’ from his bright pink and white van.
