matt (the web landlord) found both of these signs and thought them funkypancake fodder, and so they are.  the one above is self explanatory.

the one below says 'no super trolley' which is a shame.

i've set myself a regime of walking to the local tescos for my sandwich and morning pastries each morning just after it opens. i get there the same time as the trolley catchers who round up the wayward trollies after their night activities.

this daily routine suits me. here are some trolley headstands

This might be one of my favouritist pictures i've taken. It was the best thing to come from my trip to athens i think.

i love this photo. not sure why. i think you need to view it big (click on it) to get the trolley depth of field thing.

this trolley was in the middle of a street.

we see a lot of plants on the move, and perhaps this picture helps us understand the cause. this trolley is pushing the plant - we can see this if we look at the bottom of the plant pot (you might need to click the image to see it bigger).

eagle eyed vin spotted the interesting barrow man here and asked for more details, so here he is in a sequence of four pictures i took from up the Monument a few weeks back.

here he is with a 'customer' ?

and that's all i have. it looks like offal in the trolley. or perhaps it's poultry.

usually the basket and the trolley are not good friends, yet here we see them working together.

i went in to an Austrian supermarket which had a basement area. you could take your trolley up and down using the trolley escalator as seen here.

people, umbrellas and kids attached to the trolley aren't allowed up it though.

there is a trolley at the top of this picture but you can't see it because it's behind one of the signs. sorry about that.

next time i'll try and get a video clip.

click for the big version to fully appreciate this one i think


it's nice to see some trollies in this picture, which was taken outside the BBC Radio Berkshire studios.

but what really appealed to me on this was the sign saying "despatch" with the grave stones in the background.

wheel 'em in. and bury them.

i love trollies, especially when they are far from home. i hadn't realised there were just so many different types available.

here is a trolley menu for your parusal.

someone should invent trolley top-trumps. It could have categories such as cubic capacity, seating capacity, steerability, height and wheelchair attachability.

how many categories can this fit in ? it's two slippery sign bollards on a trolley in front of the Shell building
