This time I'll get away with it
When in a supermarket I'm in charge of the trolley. When I go down an aisle (stop sniggering at the back) with no-one in it I always pick up a bit of speed, balance my weight on the handlebar whilst doing a slow motion running effect with my legs and singing the Chariots of Fire theme.
I always assume no-one has noticed but once the trolley slows down and I revert back to walking in the normal style I invariably look round to see someone staring at me like I'm special needs.
I never learn though and keep doing it.
I'll be 35 next month

Oh I always do that
Albeit without the singing. Don't really give a shit who sees me.

Me too!
I always do that. What's the point in life if you can't let the inner child out for a run around every so often?

I like to
Build up speed and then see how far I can skim along on the soles of my shoes until the trolley loses momentum and friction takes over. When I used to take my little girl shopping she would merrily shout 'FASTER, FASTER, WEEEEEEEEEEE!'

Brilliant
When I worked in what is now Morrisons we used to race around the store after opening hours standing up on the pallet trucks like massive skateboards. Only a spate of broken and twisted ankles made us eventually stop. Great fun...

I find myself
more inclined to do this if the wife is there.
Just me?

Someone posted a story here a while
back about doing something like that, and silently gliding past another bloke, going in the opposite direction, doing exactly the same thing.

They just nodded at each other with mutual respect and carried on. Made me chuckle.
