LoveMyGirls · 07/08/2007 08:17

Morning got a fairly quiet day here today just my 2dd's and 1 ft mindee, we're off to playgroup this morning.

What are you all doing today?

mumlove · 07/08/2007 08:18

Hello, the sun is out at the moment so hopefully it will stay as we are off for a picnic with or toddler group.

I saw the prisoner posted yesterday evening on the childcare wanted in banbury thread.

Shoshable · 07/08/2007 08:21

Morning! Quiet morning, but off to a Noahs Ark picnic at mid day that with 2 mindees and my own LO so looking forward to that!

dmo · 07/08/2007 08:57

quite morning planned today then were going swimming

KaySamuels · 07/08/2007 09:25

Right then ladies I have a trip to Whitby next week with ds (2) and mindee (8months), how would you transport said children? I have a side by side double buggy I use for school runs, nice to push but very wide, or single maclaren, and could get a buggy board for ds, or baby carrier. Other suggestions also welcome!

Hmm just remembered broke hood on maclaren so may need new hood, or new puschair with hood.

Please help me ponder this one, am off to playgroup will check back in later [grabs cuppa and dashes off].

LoveMyGirls · 07/08/2007 12:29

Kay - whats whitby? How much will you need the pushchair? is there lots of walking? Personally i'd take the double incase both happen to want a sleep at the same time but mine is one in front of the other and both recline and is as easy as pushing a single (just a bit heavier)

We didn't go to group ended up on a woodland walk, 2 youngest fell asleep in the car and didnt stir when i got them out the car so theyre in bed so just me and dd having lunch then going to watch tv together for a bit of chill time! I think i've worn us all out!

Hi everyone

PinkChick · 07/08/2007 15:01

LOL whats whitcy[sile]..whitby is a palce close to scarborouogh its a sea side town with beaches and shops and lots of history.TBH id go for single as those roads/streets are quite windy and what with kids being off and weather a bit better, it will be busy!..OTOH, would it keep you more sane to have both sat in front of you and not one oft hem getting knocked by people moving past?...theres a lovely sweety shop over the bridge, past the chippy and round the left corner

PinkChick · 07/08/2007 15:01

aherm..i obv mean whitby

mumlove · 07/08/2007 15:39

Rain just stopped play!! It wasn't warm enough to get the pool out so filled the empty sandpit with bubbly water, the kids were loving it then the weather had to change.
As i type the thunder has started and a huge train track is now appearing in my lounge with 4 kids deciding what trains they are having.

crace · 07/08/2007 15:43

Hey - does anyone know if the buggy board or litaf seat will fit on a Urban Detour double or do I need to get a seperate triple?

KaySamuels · 07/08/2007 16:43

Whitby is nice seaside town. I can't decide PC, ds is usually a good walker but can get tired, don't want to be dragging him roun if he get worn out, but double may be awkward for little streets, argh can't make my mind up!

KaySamuels · 07/08/2007 16:43

sorry crace not sure about that

Shoshable · 07/08/2007 16:49

MightyMoosh · 07/08/2007 17:02

So its lovely here in Newquay, packing my stuff with the window open and sun pouring in... why am I moving to London again? Mind you I cant go anywhere at all cos of evil tourists, not even to town too risky. Moving Friday!

Shoshable · 07/08/2007 17:09

It was lovely here in Dorset this morning, now we have a thunder storm

OP posts:
MightyMoosh · 07/08/2007 17:17

Oh so Dorset- the family I'm going to has a house in Dorset so I'll be working there most weekends, for a bit now and after bump arrives. Whats it like? More importantly, where is it?

hennipenni · 07/08/2007 17:18

Hello everyone, we went on a picnic today (3dds and 3mindees) and would you know it, it was so cool the littlies were shivering!

MaureenMLove · 07/08/2007 17:52

Hi all. I haven't had time to chat at all today, most unlike me! Anyway, mindee off to have her hip cast op on Monday, so I'm going to check out STEPS website for info. Mum is sending me a link too, from someone doing a blog, so that should be useful.
Where abouts in London are you moving to Moose? And Fifi is back from holiday, but decorating this week I believe.

MaureenMLove · 07/08/2007 17:53

Moose!! I'm so sorry, how rude of me, I meant Moosh!

Shoshable · 07/08/2007 18:56

Where in Dorset are you coming Moosh, (and dont worry the locals dont bite) we are just north of you in Newquay love

MightyMoosh · 07/08/2007 20:01

In London, I'll be near Richmond (not technically London I dont think but is to me!) Dont know where the house is in Dorset, when they mentiones a second home I was a bit dubious, I've seen it before that you are expected to share witht the kids and weird stuff, but they say its 8 bedrooms so that sounds mansion-like!
