It is scary. Over here the trolleys only have one seat in and as Seren is only 11 months she sits in that so I have to have Cerys walk and if DH isn't with me it's a nightmare. CJ did a similar trick to me a couple of weeks ago, the people in the isle had their trollies sideways and I was trying to get passed when Cerys ran straight past and through a gap in the isle. I shouted at her to stop just before she actually ran and I got a really horrible look from the people in the isle, then she bolted. There was a woman stacking shelves where CJ had been and I was stuck behind these zig zag trollies, I shouted excuse me in German as loud as I could and in the end just rammed them out of the way so I could try and find my daughter!! I got round the corner and she was no where in sight panic definitely set in. I looked at the woman stacking shelves and said to her 'Meine Kinder, Meine Kinder' hoping she had seen which way she had gone and she just pointed roughly in a direction but did not seem bothered to help me at all. Suddenly CJ then appeared around the corner I was so relieved but did make me think that if I had to go to the desk and report her missing how would I describe her as I know a little German but not masses despite trying to learn it.

Glad all was Ok in the end though, it is so frightening so totally understand how you felt.
