I know this sounds pathetic, but the trolley system at Sainbury's, Dog Kennel Hill is driving me to distraction.

Some of the trolley's you have to unlock for ?1. Fair enough, but they have about 5 diffrent types of tolley.

When you come to take the shopping out and go to retrieve your ?1 from a like trolley you can't not find one. You spend the next 10 mins walking round the car park trying to find a trolley that matches yours so that you can get your quid back.

Even the guys that collect the trolleys think the system is stupid.

I understand the problem completely having done it recently too - but it is just a trolley?! maybe next time pick up a trolley you do not have to pay for (they are still there) then you can leave it at any trolley hut you like when your done?

I know Quids, ain't it great when you have a Friday off and spend most of the afternoon in the pub.

Then back home with a few large Peronis and get all surreal on a trolly thread.

It's what makes Fridays off special.

Cheers.

Quids, I salute you. It's good to know that it's not just me who heads straight to 'langers' after work.

And nice use of the Old English 'wanckered'.

I'm raising a large Peroni in your direction.

And before anyone makes an innuendo, it's an Italian beer, not a suppository.

The one thing that makes the weekly shop bearable is the staff at Sainsbury's. There does not seem to be a high turnover of staff. You see the same people regularly and they are always very polite and helpful. If 16 automated tills means job losses then that is really bad.

I flintch when the total of the weekly shop is revealled, the supermarkets are coining it in. I have tried all the local supermarkets, Tesco, Asda, Somerfield and always gravitate back to Sainsbury, mainly because of the freindly staff. I also find Iceland Staff really nice too.

    • has lost a Bengal cat there was one wandering around Townley Road this morning - I'm assuming it is not the norm for this fellow to be out and about solo but I'm not a cat expert... IMG_5815.heic IMG_5819 2.heic
    • Hi everyone, I'm Gen, a catsitter based in Sydenham - if you're away this summer and need some care for your pets, please do consider me!  I can typically cover Sydenham, Forest Hill, Penge, Anerley, Crystal Palace, East Dulwich and parts of Peckham. If it's outside those areas, it still might be worth messaging me to see if I can help. I'm registered with Cat in a Flat, with flawless reviews – I'm happy to accept clients through there, or just directly (you can just DM me on the forum here) - whichever you're more comfortable with. I've been catsitting for a few years, and also used to volunteer for Celia Hammond. Here's my profile https://catinaflat.co.uk/pet-sitter/377081 Ping me a message if you need help or have any questions!
    • And we humans bear a lot of responsibility for creating the conditions that brought foxes into urban settings. I certainly don't regard them as pests - they are noisy little criminals, but I'm very fond of them (we have huge numbers of them in my area - I rescued a lost baby fox earlier this year). However, there are pest control companies that use humane methods to deter them and redirect them to different territories (a friend of mine works for one, but sadly for OP, I don't think this is in their catchment area).
    • Please don't call them "pests". They are animals who have as much right to be here as we do. Which doesn't mean we can't use humane ways to keep them off our crops, like fruit cages and netting.
