Well That Was Embarassing.....oops!

Went to a local Tesco's where they have a 2 floor carpark. So parked on top and wheeled my trolley in to take the travelator down to the shop. The trolleys/travelator are magnetic and dont move when you let go of the handle - normally!!

I decided to get something out of my bag on way down, let go of handle and the trolley wheeled down and hit the bloke in front. He was not amused!

Did he swear, smow ?.

[McMouse]

So it was you then.

[losgigs]

Oh dear! At least the trolley was empty. Could have very nasty if it was full of goodies!

[Smowball]

Well I think he may have said an expletive or two when it whacked him in the back of the legs!

[Tilly2]

It wasn't your fault was it? Sue the shop!

[losgigs]

^^could have been very nasty!

[Smowball]

Its not funny really I know, but I was pretty shocked when I looked up and it had whizzed off down the travelator. Not as shocked as him though.

[Robinia]

[pdust]

hi robinia.... ah i know what you mean..thanks. Never heard them called that before :)

[Robinia]

I could do with them on the pavements pixi...
Last time I was on one my trolley did suddenly move forward a short way. It was ok though, it was only my sister in front of me ;o)

[masma]

How funny, made me laugh out loud. Wish I'd been there, not in front of you though ;-)

these things happen, you cannot reasonably be expected to be held acciuntable for a simple accident

hopefully, the gentleman would have realised that
