There's an ice cream/lolly shop here called Cones & Candy and that is the most Melton thing ever. No pretence of it being anything but a blatant euphemism for recreational drugs. The Birdcage (the part of Melton the shop is) knows what it is, and it isn't hiding it.

Hiding in plain sight.

I went in there a few weeks back while waiting for my fish & chips and realised this is the kind of shit lollies my daughter and her friends like. Quickly backed out.
