I am going mad with this bloomin thing...

How the flip does the stupid hood go on - I have the hood rods every way but the hood is not right, I have turned them upside down and swapped them over, I thought I had to line up the triangles on the one side for tem to be the correct way around but no joy and how do the white clamps attatch and WHERE!

I may resort to using the bloomin thing without the hood.

Have to say impressed with everything else but the hood has flumoxed me and it must be really easy and obvious as I can't find any you tube videos to show me

OMG I am sooooooooooo stupid, I had the hood rods upside down as I did the clamps and so had the white bits pointing up into the air insted of the groove for them to go in

Right - at the top of the seat - there is a small straight black handle (just below the hood) - grasp that handle (on it's own - do not hold the other black or white handle lower down) and pull upwards firmly. It is stiff - if it wasn't the seat would just "slide" back down into itself again.
watch this video on you tube
It's the small black handle (just above the smile shaped black handle) to adjust back height.
Don't grip the 2 black handles together - that won't work!

And in advance of the next question - how much to squeeze the white handle in order to reverse the seat
you tube video here
(you don't squeeze all the way up like you would to position the seat - only half way up to collapse the seat ready to turn it).

No - they are a bit "gadgety" but you will quickly learn how it all works - and I'm sure you will love it.

I use these Bagabottle Pouches I have one for my all terrain pram and one for my bee+
Much less expensive than most nappy bags.
I have these change mats which are really big but fold really small and are waterproof backed. I put in a change mat - 3 nappies, full size pack of wipes, spare shorty romper just incase, purse, mobile, keys, sun cream, fruit pouch or snack bar just incase. I also use 2 of the bottle pouches bagabottle make - one each side - for dc's cup/water bottle and mine!
I like this bagabottle pouch as it is always left on the handlebar ready to go - and doesn't interfere with folding the pram - and is not so big it hits your knees or slides down the frame towards the seat!
I have a couple in funky different patterns. They are well made, have a waterproof layer in them and are quilted on the inside. Great value for money!
