At the moment Fi I am for anything that fecks others off. How outrageous of me.Frankly the thought of cutting someone off at the knees kinda appeals to me, and if the flower one shown is THE one I approve wholeheartedly.

Love the little pink and green floral cart for all of the emotional baggage. Hilarious.

Ha ! I bought a shopping trolly too and when Mary from the Dairy
(well - the co-op now but it was the dairy) remarked on it I told her that "I have finally succumbed to the fact that I need a shopping trolly" We couldn't stop giggling.

Actually, I find the thing a bugger to pull up kerbs. I've warned the dog many times that he will be getting saddle bags soon.

I salute you for your trolley. Whatever works, right? It's just crazy to keep lugging all that lot (and I do absolutely trust that you need it) in a handbag. I'm afraid I'm the sort that carries at least one canvas bag -- usually my green Daunt books one -- AND a big handbag. (Maybe this is why my shoulder always aches?)

I'm so glad to hear that you are studying to be a counsellor. You will be well-suited to that position as you combine warmth, humour and a chattiness that would put the shy at ease with solid, sensible advice. Duly noted by me in your very generous comment. xo

Yay for you!!!! Sounds like you have much to tote so you needed a good vehicle....obviously you're not a teetotaller!!! Fortunately I do not have to haul much around, the occasional overnight trip and of course, packing up my art for shows. One of my favorite pieces was a gift from my mother-in-law, a large green bag with a logo of a hatted lady carrying a bag....a couture carrier! For trips I love my wheeled small luggage that is a beautiful red plaid trimmed with black patent leather!!! Carrying my most beloved purse that is a Tignanello. My favorite because it was not only a bargain but it has the best convenience in pockets and is a treat for the eye out of a matted bronze gold and pewter colored leather.

I carry "the bucket". It's a huge (formerly) black (now worn to brownish) leather thing that looks exactly like a bucket with a shoulder strap.

It's been with me everywhere from Scotland to Ireland to Italy and back, to work with me every day, and everywhere else too.

It holds my huge daytimer/wallet, cell phone, camera, lucky rocks, lucky buckeyes, loose coinage, folding knife, receipts, directions, shopping lists, mail, feminine hygiene products, chewing gum, makeup, hairbrush, and if you look closely I bet Jimmy Hoffa is in there somewhere, too.

It weighs about thirty pounds, fully loaded, which explains my bad neck and great thigh muscles.

Chairman, my optician did indeed suggest varifocals, but my glance froze him instantly to the spot and he turned into a swirl of snakes - It's true, so there!

SueAnn - I think parking and car parks in the US are not what they are in Newcastle - I'd be exhausted dithering back and forth...

As it is, I don't have the car with me, so what I have for the day stays with me for the day - All day and into night - Hence my pack-horse and pack-rat tendencies ;) x

Sarah Mac - Me too, I miss those days, although occasionally the buggy would tip backwards! Luckily, Grizz wasn't usually in it - Normally striding out in front - LOL! x

Some of my 'proper' counsellor friends have wheeled cases - Maybe Tea-loving Lady might like one for Chrimbo - Just saying! x

2011-11-09T11:28:44.051Z

I carry a large purse everywhere with all my bits and bobs!
I drive my car and park as close as I can unless I am feeling I need to stretch a bit...then I park far away and hike it. If I obtain too many bags while shopping, I simply walk out to the car and deposit into the back. Then I go back at it.
Hugs
SueAnn

How I miss the days when the children were small and everything could be stowed under the pushchair.

Even more so the days when they started to walk and I could fill the seat up as well.

These days I really need a rucksack back and front!

2011-11-08T18:22:29.453Z

Your bag's contents sound just like Partner-who-loves-tea - even down the counselling books. But somehow I think that if I suggested a trolley I'd get hit over the head with a very heavy handbag... It may logical and sensible but ... I'm proud of you - it says a lot for your self-esteem that you can use one and smile about it.

I've thought about this as I make my second trip back from the shops - I couldn't look myself in the face if I used a trolley but I have thought about taking my bike and hanging things off the handlebars.

Pockets? I am listening - But I eschew so many pockets as I would look as if I was off poaching and would face the farmers' gun out here in the (country) sticks, Heron! x

A backpack, Vix, I know - But how to rock a backpack that needs to be twice the size of a normal one to carry all my crapilola??! xxx

Suldog, thankyou for your sense and sensibility - You can always be relied upon - Yes, I almost posted 'relied up' there! Missing letters and words seems to be in the air today - Mwah! x

2011-11-08T17:03:58.570Z

All labor-saving devices (excuse me, for you, labour-saving devices) are worthwhile and deserve whatever room they up in the house. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise!

2011-11-08T15:50:23.253Z

I should really carry a backpack, they are much easier on the spine but they are just too sensible!
There's lots of younger folk with funky trollies at my hydrotherapy class, use it and be proud. x

2011-11-08T15:45:21.125Z

I have pockets, lots of pockets! 4 in my trousers, 3 in my waistcoat & 4 in my jacket. Don't use a wallet, threw the wristwatch as soon as I retired or it may have been months before. The shopping is done on a Friday, goods are put in carrier bags & lugged to the car at each of the three stores that we use. For two minutes my back gets compressed moving the purchases to the kitchen when we get home and then as if by magic my body reforms.
Trolleys are out tried them once before & kept tripping over.. horses for courses I guess.

To hear that coming from you, oh three wise and great men is such a charm for me today! Thank you so!

I thought of a backpack, but couldn't find one big enough - Yikes! I am carrying too much!

2011-11-08T13:32:26.405Z

You have such a great writing style that I was mesmerized by handbags! When I was working, I used to carry everything in a backpack -- never used anything, just carried around. Now that I am retired, I put my camera in the trunk of my car but carry nothing. Sometimes I forget my wallet.
