Hello...My name is Suzie and i'm a buggy addict and have been since i was a child...My dad would take me in school holidays to play with the buggies in John Lewis...My DD who's just turned 2 has 11 or 12 doll buggies to her name!!! I've had about 35 myself!!! Blush

Guildfordnanny · 18/05/2011 21:33

Lol well done ;) So what is your favourite pushchair of the moment / addiction?

suzie38 · 18/05/2011 21:37

My favorite has to be the Donkey but i love my Vigours as well...DH took the Vigour out today because of forecast wet weather and thought he's struggle with a Donkey apron (not used it myself) and he said there's not much between them...But if for some reason ie there was a law to say you could only have one buggy Shock i'd have to say my Graco Citisport as it's so tiny, light and nippy with a massive basket or get a reverse handle Combi where the wheels automatically adjust, came across one again tonight.

I have to say a Micralite has never floated my boat, along with Buzzes or Stokkes.

Expecting dc2 which will change that- eyes up rear facers!

Ooooooooo a new pram thread! There used to be one ongoing hread, but the members disbanded :(

As an old pram hun, hello everyone :)

I'm 5inthebed, a recovering pram hun, and I have had 37 prams in the past 2 years. Currently living with a Maclaren Techno XT, but soon getting a nipper 360 and Zapp Blush

FriggFRIGG · 18/05/2011 21:48

I've never been tempted with an iCandy but if i had one it'd be the Cherry though the Strawberry looks quite good especially as it folds in one piece...I've only got 1 more year of buggies as DD will be 3 then and no more babies for me...Luckily she wears 9-12 month clothes so looks tiny so less likely to get funny looks if she's in a buggy.

FriggFRIGG · 18/05/2011 21:50

37!!! i though 20 was bad!!!Shock

Frigg- not according to dp! Got a bjcm and brought a carrycot and new seat for it.

But I want a RF........wail.

Guildfordnanny · 18/05/2011 21:54

Micralites are interesting. I got to play with one briefly the other week. My Babyzen arrives tomorrow. I have been waiting patiently for it for weeks! So I am very excited! Stokkes are just odd. I was pram watching the other day in a shopping centre (am I the only mad one who does this?) and saw about three but on the apron of every carrycot was a handbag! It was really funny. The owners clearly didn't know what to do with them nor wanted to bend down to the bag each time.

Guildfordnanny · 18/05/2011 21:56

I like the look of the Strawberry. The leg rest looks short in real life but the seat is meant to be the biggest iCandy seat. I need to find out if my local shop is having one of the special preview days to have a good play.

5inthebed · 18/05/2011 21:56

It gets worse, I hav had the same prams 2 or three times Blush

Loved my micralite, wish I had kept it but didn't fit well in my car boot

aswellasyou · 18/05/2011 21:57

Hello everyone! My name is aswellasyou and I'm a wannabe buggy addict. I aim to one day own a vintage coach built sort of pram. I don't care that I'll only be able to walk it in the park because they're big and don't always turn well. I also want to have a Zoom or Kolcraft Contours so the babies can see each other but they're just so big. The pushchairs, not the babies. Well actually, Saoirse's baby is pretty big. Mine's not. Grin

5inthebed · 18/05/2011 21:57

OADCB, BJCMs are fantastic prams. The carrycot sits really high up as well.

suzie38 · 18/05/2011 21:59

I'm always buggy watching wherever i go...Lots at the seaside but they're usually naff chavvy models...When we decided ttc, not long after we went to Cornwall and were surrounded by Bugaboos, likewise when i went to London a couple of months ago, also lots of P&T's...Local area to my parents is quite good for that, i've seen 3 Uppababy Vistas...Mind you i sold mine last Thursday.

suzie38 · 18/05/2011 22:00

I love the name Saoirse.

suzie38 · 18/05/2011 22:01

I've got 3 Vigours at the moment and 2 Graco Citisports.

aswellasyou · 18/05/2011 22:02

I LOVE pushchair spotting! I'm glad there are ususally two of us doing it though because everyone else around us thinks we're weird.
