I was unsure about whether it was OK to score this trolley, given that it was in front of the Sainsbury's petrol station, not far from the entrance to the car park, so I had a chat session with the duty officer of the rules committee.
His ruling was that the combination of not being visible from the trolley jockeys' regular beat and the front wheel lock having dropped made it legitimate salvage, roughly in the sense of the International Convention on Salvage (1989).
But he did complain about the poor quality of picture streaming from my telephone, which meant that he had to give more weight to my testimony in the matter than he would have liked.
