Ah....y'see was temporarily dazzled by the masticator thing.Thought it seemed like a damned good idea.
Too much time spent on my own flicking through catalogues I'll wager....

i bet you she doesn't have a baby in that carseat. only way she is talking on a mobile and walking upright.

Those banana guards are huge Hunker.
And positively phallic.
I have never suffered squashed banana syndrome in my life.

I love those pushchairs that come with a carrying strap. Yeah, like it is so much more convenient to fold it up and carry the bloody heavy thing on your poor shoulder than it is to put your handbag in it and push it

moondog · 24/01/2007 23:36

Ther must be at least one nutter who has the burkah and the strap thingy.Poss. also banana guard.

kiskidee · 24/01/2007 23:39

and i stand up for my mugtree! I don't have space in the cabinets for mugs.

hunkermunker · 24/01/2007 23:40

Oh crikey, I don't have a burkah or a car seat strap - norks oot and a sling all the way here

The BG was just because I was sick of putting a banana in my bag for either boy and it getting battered because I forgot it was there. It's happened loads to me I'm useless with bananas!

Greensleeves · 24/01/2007 23:40

I have a mugtree . I wasn't going to admit it, but since you've gone first....

hunkermunker · 24/01/2007 23:41

Hahahahahahahaha!

harpsichordcarrier · 24/01/2007 23:41

I think banana guards are marvellous things
am allergic to bananas
they need guards
and to be kept in a cage, locked away from civilised society
evil fkn Fruit of Death

Greensleeves · 24/01/2007 23:41

Oh, go swivel on your nana

moondog · 24/01/2007 23:41

Do you have a.......banana tree though?
If so there is NO Hope.

Greensleeves · 24/01/2007 23:42

PMSL at Fruit Of Death

It's certainly the first fruit to develop a fucking armoured exoskeleton...

kiskidee · 24/01/2007 23:44

and bananas also need protection from fruitflies.

(i didn't know what a banana guard was till just now when i think i thought people meant a banana tree) is it a plasticy container to put a banana in?

harpsichordcarrier · 24/01/2007 23:44

god, the thought of them just knocking around in a bag, getting all squishy and spurting their satanic slime all over everything.
urgh.
lock them up and throw away the key

Kiff · 24/01/2007 23:45

aloha, i cry for want of a strap on my buggy. i live up three flights of stairs with two kids. Each morning (down) and evening (up) I contemplate choice of a 'bump it down the staris hyperextending my ligaments as it gets away from me' or 'lift it and carry it - leaving gouges in the walls.

moondog · 24/01/2007 23:46

I love Lakeland.
Also ludicrous House of Bath type mini catalogues from the paper.
Crap like capacious commodes that are cunnigly disguised as vanity stools and upholstered in peach polyester.
Bring it on!

moondog · 24/01/2007 23:47

Kiff,I can't believe that.
I would die of depression if I had to live like that (which I did for a short while in Russia)
Nothing beats lugging a pushchair and small child up and down stairs for briniging on the blues.It is unbelievably horrid.

Aloha · 24/01/2007 23:47

Well, yes that does sound difficult. The ads only ever show bouncy young women carrying the blooming pushchair over their shoulder while strolling down a boulevard somewhere. Now that I cannot see the point of. Would it be easier to keep your buggy in the car (if you have one)?

hunkermunker · 24/01/2007 23:49

Harpsi, PMSL at satanic slime.

Greeny, PMSL at exoskeleton.

Greensleeves · 24/01/2007 23:50

lol at "bouncy young women". I know just the type. So kickable.

Aloha · 24/01/2007 23:51

I want to shout 'I know the truth! She does SO not have a baby! Where is her overhang?!'

Kiff · 25/01/2007 03:59

Aloha, leaving it in the car was the original plan - and I do sometimes. Ruddy Maclarens are deceptively big though - so quite the battle royal to shove it in there, amongst my car boot's regular residents.

Thanks for sympathy y'all

Kiff · 25/01/2007 04:02

Totally pmsl at OP though.

ghosty · 25/01/2007 04:12

OMG ... that carseat strap

I couldn't carry my babies in a front pack even .... they were so huge ....

What is wrong with picking your baby out of the car seat and putting it in the pram or carrying it?
