	When we went shopping in France a few years ago, a mad French woman kept driving her trolley into us Brits, particularly in the booze aisles, and nearly crippled my OH! She had nothing in her trolley, it was just for badness! :-\| :-\| :-\|

	One of my pet hates was when someone with a trolley would drive it into the back of my heels/legs. Always asked them if there was not enough floor space for them :-\| :-(

	I love speaking to my new friends on here, and really miss it when I'm away - that's why I try to find WiFi when I can :-D :-D I think mobility scooters are great, and they bring much needed independence, though they drive me nuts in the supermarkets! :-D :-D :-D
