Trolley 108

Only just off the car park at Kiln Lane, but scored as the wheel lock was deployed and it was cunningly tucked out of sight, behind the street food caravan outside Wickes. Proper street food, I might add: burgers, bacon rolls and that sort of thing.

I might also add that I am getting quite good at pushing a locked trolley. Tipped right up on its back wheels seems to work best, with their seeming to work best when in the forward position shown. Don't understand, as I would have thought the backward position would be the position of choice. Must be something to do with the unusual angle messing up the dynamics.

Trolley returned to the special needs alcove outside Sainsbury's, where a couple of people on a fag break from the next door Timpson's chalet thought that the trolley jockeys did indeed carry keys to unlock the locks. Or perhaps just the jockey supervisors, but there were keys about.

PS: I have a soft spot for Timpson as I believe this snip from their web site is for real: 'Timpson really are an equal opportunities employer. We consider anyone for our vacancies as long as they are able to do the job. This includes ex-offenders and other marginalised groups. We recruit exclusively on personality and expect all of colleagues to be happy, confident and chatty individuals'.
