Luton Airport???

[TWR]

What do you think about these robbing B@SDS charging for the trolleys? the next thing they will be charging to use their poxy toilets.

[Hopkirk]

Don't you get the coin back when you return the trolley?

[TWR]

Never used the place Hopkirk but it was published in the paper along side some others.

[Hopkirk]

Stansted introduced it a while ago, but you get your £1 0r 1 Euro back when you neatly stow your trolley away.

It saves them the cost of employing so many trolley people, but also stops unattended trolleys blowing across the forecourt and bashing into vehicles.

[boxtops]

It's the same at all the airports, what's all the fuss about? You pay £1 or a euro to unlock the trolley, and you get your money back when you've finished with it. nothing new, I assure you!

[jackthehat]

I rarely get outraged about news items I haven't read properly............

[AlBags]

It is new ... !

They are charging £2 and KEEPING it.
Just to use a chuffing trolley For Funks Sake.

[Hopkirk]

Is there a Euro symbol on my keyboard somewhere? I can't see one.

You can buy pound tokens for when you do not have a pound coin on you.

These tokens are an exact replica of the pound and fit all trolleys.

I have one and it comes in useful when you do not have a pound coin.

Are you the dead one? .. or was that Randall?

[AlBags]

What do you buy the pound token with? A pound coin?

[jackthehat]

Silly............That would have been Randall (desceased) and Hopkirk...........

[boxtops]

Ah - thanks Albags, no link to the article so that sounds like a 100% hike in prices. I'll get me own, thank goodness for cases with wheels.

[Hopkirk]

OMG,TWR is right, they are robbing B@SDS. They have been doing it for a couple of years, and are just about to double the charge to £2.

(I've not been well you know)

[jackthehat]

*deceased, even..........:o(

[AlBags]

They are doing similar inside with trolleys to Departures too, I think.

I think you're wrong Jack. Sure it was Marty ... and that's his pic.

[funnygirl]

Yes that right and when you have not got a pound you use your token!

Easy peasy.

[jackthehat]

It was Randall and Hopkirk (deceased)...........indicating that Marty Hopkirk was the one who was brown bread..........

[Hopkirk]

I'm feeling much better.

[funnygirl]

Can we see you hopkirk??
