Trolley 93

Another trolley captured on the path between the back of Sainbury's and the West Street bridge over the Epsom-Waterloo railway line, this one with the front wheel lock dropped.

A bit of experiment suggested the best way to do it was to fit one trolley inside the other, that is to say trolley 92, tip the pair of them well back so that they could run on the rearmost pair of back wheels. Slightly awkward in that one had to bend slightly to hold them in position and push, but it worked well enough on a good surface, which the path back to the front of Sainsbury's mainly was.

Along the way I wondered whether it would not have been easier to put the locked trolley in the basket of the other trolley. These smaller trolleys are not too heavy for such a lift and one would fit inside the basket of another, albeit taking up a fair bit of path. Perhaps something to be tried on the next occasion.

Outside Sainsbury's front entrance, I found that trolley 91 had yet to be attended to. Wheel lock still dropped.

Looking as it we are on target to make the century this year and our minds our turning to the appropriate form of celebration. Perhaps also something to be marked by an advertisement in the local free Guardian? Or by a letter to 'Borough Insight', this last being the council freebie?
