@anish, seriusly, what with the ice-ream, does that help answer it?
its 1,5 and 7 i think as the three numbers across from the pub must be consecutive, missing out the pub number

hmm... I'm guessing answer is 9,2,2
Explaination - Seeing that the sum is 13 and seeing that he explicitly mentions "oldest" , i came to the conclusion that he must have one older child and two younger children who must be twins.
Seeing the various combinations of ages which add up to 13, only 3 combinations add up to 13 - 9,2,2 , 11,1,1 and 6,6,1 and since his oldest is not one of the twins, 6,6&1 does not come into the picture
This is where i got stuck for some time, i could not figure out whether the answer was 11,1,1 or 9,2,2 but then i read the problem and found out that the guy could not find out the ages based on the product.
If product had been 11, anybody would have realised that 11 is a prime number and that answer would have been 11,1,1 but since he needed another clue besides the age product, it must have been 9,2,2
Of course if my assumption that they were twins is wrong, i just wasted 5 minutes typing this out

I still think it's either 7 3 3, 7 2 4 or 7 1 5. Because word 'vanilla' consists of 7 letters. And that's how I got the oldest age, lmao. Haven't figured the others yet, though.
