View Full Version : my accident
me and sheila went for a bit of shopping in tesco tonight .... i felt confident enough not to use my wheelchair , so decided to hold on to the handle of the trolley ... im normally ok like that ...... but i fell while holding the trolley ... all hell broke loose in tescos... loads of people around me , even a official first aider !!!! :eek: , despite my protestations that i didnt need a ambulance and falling is fairly normal for me , they where going to ring one , i asked them very politely not to . but they insisted on pushing the trolley to my car and loading it , then insisted i rested for a while before driving home , i only got a few bruises and a cut arm ( which they dressed lol ) ...... brilliant staff :thumb2

well maybe next time you can fall, but dont land! wont hurt then !!
Glad to hear you are ok Briggie, that's what's important.
But it did spring to mind.... Joke coming....
Did you fall before paying at the till, a great way of getting your weeks shopping for nothing especially when they load your car as well.
Did they give you your £1 back for the trolley?
As I said great to hear you are ok, my mother-in-law fell once in Morrisons, they were the same, most people do help in this type of situation, most shops would be the same.
I think they are also concerned if there was any liability against them at a later time, maybe someone claiming they slipped on water etc.
I think the £1 return to base trolleys are far better, less dings in your car, especially if the car parks are on a slope, or you are affected by "strong wind".:lol
