Trolley 678

A bent M&S trolley from near the top of the Kokoro Passage. Despite the bent handle, it wheeled fine, all four wheels squarely on the ground.

On the way, what one might have thought was an inoffensive eucalyptus tree coming down. It looks as if it is on or at least near the stream line, so water would not have been a problem. Who can see the chain saw?

Then heading on to Ewell from M&S, this line of delivery scooters outside McDonalds's. There can be a lot more of them and they can be a bit of a pain - but I don't suppose McDonald's are going to complain, even if it does irritate some of their walk-in customers. While I wonder how many of them fail to meet the payments on their scooters: there are so many of them that it is hard to see how any of them make a decent living.

Onto Bourne Hall for a further inspection of the fallen tree, first noticed at reference 2. Crossing the tape to take a closer look. I suppose it must be a lateral root, heading away from the water, that one can see snapped off there - but not at all sure about it. It looks more different from the two angles than it ought to...

I suppose it must have come down this way, given the state of the railings, with some of the wrought iron bars - say half an inch square - snapped clean in two. Poking around the litter, I would say oak leaves, from which I deduce oak tree.

Plus a fine greater celandine, as previously noticed. Flanked by green alkanet, also as previously noticed. Good park, Bourne Hall.

While the next day, around the back of Epsom Hospital where there is an impressive collection of huts and containers, housing all kinds of services, I came across this superior cycle rack for the use of the staff, not like the one the public get to use at Ewell West Station, as noticed, for example, at reference 3, at all. But then, that one has been there for near ten years now - and I get to snap the eco-roof from above from time to time.
