Trolley 424

Trolley 424 had been dumped at the entrance to the passage between the chipper (behind the trolley) and Leightons the opticians, just by some High Street bus stops, and was captured in the margins of a visit to that same Leightons. Visited because they prompted me - and, as it happened, visited to have the interior of my eyes scanned, during which scan one could see arrays of bright red, mostly horizontal lines, possibly something to do with a raster scanning process. Which was entirely appropriate as I am presently spending quality time on the mechanics of scanning the interiors of heads, otherwise fMRI.

A month since I captured the last trolley, so I no longer care to hazard a guess as to when I will hit the half millennium, once pencilled in for the autumn of last year. With this trolley being a rather weather beaten, but entirely serviceable trolley from Waitrose. It looked as if it had been out all night, so I thought it OK to return it to their stack.

PS: interested to read this morning that the once mighty Boeing is still in trouble. First the long grounding of their 737 Max, now back in the air, then last year's massive drop in the passenger carrying businesses of their customer airlines and now what look like serious production problems with their 787 Dreamliner, with deliveries flatlining on the graphic in today's FT. Will they manage to keep out of junk bond land? Are aeroplanes getting too complicated for their own good?
