When making myself a cup of tea in the kitchen , by the time I have pushed the trolly to the living room usually end up with half a cup .

Wished I had thought of this earlier.

Hi there, you can buy cups that have plastic lids over, I've seen them when out shopping. I think they sell them in a variety of shops. But your idea works just as well. 👍😊

Thank you for your suggestion, it’s nice to have a full cup of tea.

Great solution Plain. Often we do have to think outside the box when finding solutions to the difficulties we have with some jobs when we don't have a full range of movement! Just because we were brought up drinking sipping tea from a cup, it doesn't mean that's the only way to drink tea! 😊👍

Hi Plain , I have the same problem my trolley broke so it is still the same when carrying it, how do you get it over the carpet strips???. Then how do we mop up the mess ? Besides only getting half a cup :) . I have been using a thermos cup with a hook and lid that attaches to a walking frame but not the same as a proper cup it tastes aweful.

Hello Katie, When using a mug for tea, would put the mug into a large plastic bowl on my trolly , wheel it to the front room , then pour the slops back into the mug . It sort of worked. But using a large jug half full it doesn’t slop, but you have to drink the tea with a straw. Just had a thought you could take the empty mug with you then pour the tea back into the empty mug. Getting across the carpet strips get one wheel over , then the opposite wheel over, or just give it a good hard push.
