The trick now, James, in the H-Van spotting game, is to spot one that's not a coffee wagon!

I spotted an H Van (AGS 5090) early morning yesterday (around 06:30). What was unusual is that it was self propelled! As I was heading out to work I followed it along London Road and then down Sidmouth Street before it went left at Queens Road while I turned right.

Doing a roaring trade at our local Christmas Tree Farm...

I spotted this Peugeot recently when I was at GSF recently, and the H-Van a couple of months ago.

That's an unusual one James... Looks a bit longer than a normal LWB H...

The one behind it is a LWB H Van. It has been photographed by myself before (and posted here).

Spotted in its usual guise near Hunstanton...

And saw another but couldn't stop to take a photo of it...

I was on the M25 this morning (heading from J16 to J20) when I was surprised to see a self propelled shocking pink H-Van, and it was for Chill Gelato (so NOT a coffee van!).

Nice one James

Gelato = a posh name for ice cream in the same way a latte is a posh name for a milky coffee...

Erm, if you were to ask for a Latte in Italy you will end up with just a glass of milk (and an irritated barista!).

Rule 1 - never irritate a barista

Although, go into any of the big coffee chains and ask for a babyccino* and that's exactly what you'll get - warm frothy full-fat milk

I know many children who enjoy one after Junior parkrun - makes them look all grown-up in the coffee shop...

*A portmanteau of 'baby' and 'cappuccino'

No problem irritating baristas, it's solicitors you have to watch out for

I spotted a blue H-Van in Hurstpeirpoint (Mid Sussex) that was, I am glad to say, self propelled (and not on a trailer). No photos as I was driving.
