The formidable Mary Bonnetti was an ice cream van driver who battled Stan Ogden for control of her patch in 1966. When Mary found out that Stan had been pinching her trade, she tracked him down and warned "fatty" that if he didn't back down he should ready himself for an ice cream war. Stan ignored her threats, as she didn't have a licence and was claiming the patch only on gentleman's agreement with other local vendors, the latest in a long line of Bonnettis who had worked the area for thirty years. The character was credited as Mrs Bonnetti. Her first name was given in dialogue.
