Ok - I understand that not all that many people have twin toddlers but once you also add in everyone with kids a year ish apart I should imagine that's quite a few ED families. So why, why, why have Sainsbury's only got one twin trolley? I am brassed off with spending my Saturday mornings scampering around the cap park looking for the bloody thing only to give up and shove them in one of the ones with rear facing seats that they are now too heavy for. I even asked the nice lady on customer services about whether it was worth filling in a suggestion form about it, only to be (very politely) told that a) they don't have any suggestion forms and b) there would be no point as "nothing would happen anyway".


Note to anyone with the same gripe - we went to the Asda on the Old Kent Road today and they have a veritable fleet of the things!

That's so odd because I went to Sainsbury's on Monday with my two (2 1/2 years apart) and as I walked across the car park with a child in each hand was approached by an employee asking if I wanted a twin trolly. I thought it was very helpful of him asking despite the fact that my eldest wouldn't fit in the seat. Now I'll know to jump at the chance next time.


Lesson to be learned - go to Sainsbury's on a Monday morning. ;-)

usually they are very helpful but often they don't actually find. i am livid with this as they now tell me to pull one twin out of the back yet don't provide an alternative trolley. my kids are that badly behaved it's just a lot faster to have both in the trolley so i can quickly dash around.


if anyone wants to bring it up, i have in person at the store, i am more than happy to sign something but i simply do not have the time to do more than that....

Excellent tip. I shall keep the faith in future and look out for red handles.... That's when i've finished dragging my wife away from angry confrontations with dangerous looking geezers parking in the parent and kids slots so that their girlfriends can run in and buy fags (ok admittedly that was just once, but I still get flashbacks)

    • I can't recommend Peter and his team enough. Polite, professional, punctual and nothing is too much to ask; they are able to tile, plumb, decorate and manage the electrics. Peter is a very skilled tiler specialising in, but not limited to, Victorian tiles. He has done our kitchen in a previous property, and now a full bathroom refurb. Details are: Peter (PW Tiling) 07989141232 Lilli Cooper
    • Some 4-day party! Sorry, just my view, but I feel random fireworks are really anti-social. If scheduled, with plenty of notice, people who need to can at least escape for the duration (well most people, I guess). I know those who adore fireworks will feel differently, but they can cause so much costly suffering and damage to animals and owners.
    • I was woken around midnight the other night as a Lime man tried to untangle a heap of three bikes someone had piled on my driveway. They block the pavements and people knock them over in frustration. I wrote to Lime and told them that in future any bikes left near my property would be securely stored away for collection at a mutually convenient time for both parties. I confiscated one at the weekend but a man knocked on our door looking to rent it while I was at work and my son gave it to him! I told Lime it's not fair of them to push the problem on to the local collection depots, they create the problem by allowing users to dump the things wherever they like. If they were penalized for doing so that would put an end to it.
