Trolley 36

Things are looking up, just about a month since the last trolley, rather than three months. Found at the entrance at Victoria Place, so not far from the Sainbury's trolley depot at Kiln Lane. Front right hand wheel one of those big black jobs again. Maybe where they hide the illicit removal detector?

After return, I came across another trolley behind a six feet chain link fence, on the way to the rail bridge which gives access to the Longmead industrial estate, via the back of Epsom Coaches. Must have been quite a palaver to get it there. I got to thinking about the fun we had in my days as a Boy Scout with pioneering poles, ropes and pulleys, of which my (school) troop had a good supply. Would 15 year old boys still think it fun to organise said pole, ropes and pulleys so as to be able to hoist the trolley back over the fence, without climbing or otherwise touching the fence? One could always add a bit of spice by doing it the dark against the clock, with patrols taking it in turns to see if they could beat the best time to date.

Maybe a special bonus if one managed to put a scout across the fence to effect the hook up, rather than using a grappling iron.
