Okay. I just read _Circle of Friends_ by Maeve Binchy, and it called
to mind a question that I've never gotten around to asking. Can anyone
(thank goodness we've had a recent influx of Brits to the club to call
upon for bits of useful knowledge) tell me what the heck a Knickerbocker
Glory is? All I can make out is that it's some sort of ice cream wonder,
but is there some specific formula for making it that's known throughout
the UK?

Jen (who is too scared to try the "SOS" (Superior Oversized Sundae)
at Superior Dairy (local ice cream place), but thinks that Dudley would
probably want to take a crack at it)
