A Merseyside ice cream man said he lost thousands of pounds worth of business after the council banned him from displaying his popular plastic cow.
John Hughes has been selling ice cream from his West Kirby shop, Artisan Gelato, for two and a half years now. Since the beginning, he has had his plastic cow seat, called Tracy, outside the shop for customers to enjoy.
Yet, Tracy has now become the centre of a spat with the council, who have ordered John to remove Tracy from the pavement outside after a single complaint was lodged about the lack of space on the pavement outside his shop.
