Might The Answer Be Choc Ices?

What more noble pursuit is there for a blogger other than asking important questions otherwise ignored by the mainstream media? In my humble opinion, the pressing issue of the day isn’t Zimbabwe, the price of oil, or even guessing when that Scottish lad will get knocked out of Wimbledon (I say he'll be gone by Friday). It’s the question posed in this post where some of the greatest minds in the blogosphere are now debating how Lord Jeffrey Archer managed to carry 10 ice creams through a gay wedding celebration. I've read 'Papillion' so I know all the tricks a man learns in prison. But I think it's hard to see how ten ice cream cones would fit up there, even if they are pushed narrow end first.

Which makes this puzzle, I think, really worthy of the title of a Thought Experiment.

Bryan, I salute you. And I eagerly await the answer.
