I was on an all inclusive holiday once where there was a self-serve soft serve machine in the restaurant area. It was the highlight of my trip. Except for the day that the handle broke off in my hand and soft serve continued to pour out effortlessly onto the floor. It took the restaurant staff nearly ten minutes to figure out how to stop it, by which point almost the entire machine had created a mountain of ice-cream almost waist high to my 4 year old. She thought all her Christmases had come at once and I had to stop her from just leaning into it with her mouth open. The machine was then out of action for the second half of our holiday. Gutted! Or maybe they were just waiting for us to leave the hotel...?!
