unwilling pram chat before I get told to shut up!

Hi hunnis
just wanted to say huns that have been too busy selling prams inducting dcs into the ways of the chav and dressing in burberry to mn

welcome to pumpkin

fury cannot help with pram dilemma have 3 myself but one in loft big pram for everyday and buggy for car and travel

mhc hope dcs feel better soon

dkma how's work?

sorry anyone else I've missed must be my hun brain

What travel one do you have?

And what's wrong with burberry?

I am getting DS'es ear pierced on sat, innit.
It's gonna be a diamond stud to match his dad

have maclaren techno xt as was suitable from birth and we went on hols when lo was 6 weeks

I like it bit more substantial than a normal maclaren

fury there was a baby at weighing clinic recently with a bracelet in the shape of a diamond boxing glove on

ooh andiem can you help me then - were you able to take your techno xt ON the plane or did it have to go in the hold when you got to the door?

it had to go in the hold but that is not related to the size of the buggy it is entirely at the discretion of the staff despatching the plane
one of my mates is ba cabin crew and she says it is up to the guy at the plane gate whether or not you can take it on
she had one the other day who let none on but the week before 10 went on
also it depends if it is charter
mark warner don't let anyone take them on as there would be a riot as so many have them they couldn't fit them all in

Hello Hunni's

god what a day...the weather is awful!

tis sunny here norty

Ooh Fury - I've just been looking into that with Jet2 for when we go skiing.
They say collapsible pushchairs can be used right up to steps of plane and then collected at the bottom of steps when you land - I thought that was ok? Dont really need it on the plane?! And it's not getting chukked about with cases etc.
They have a weight limit of 10kg I think - which is ot much (but the Micralite is under that)

Oh fook!
that was supposed to say 'chucked' and 'not'

dkma where are you going skiing we are off to meribel

DKMA - what andiem said.
Apparently I was told they would also only allowed umbrella folds (hence getting the maclaren).
The only reason it matters to me is when I went to the US we had to collect our pram on the baggage conveyer - meaning I had to carry a very heavy tired baby for 1 hour in customs queues and still wait for it to come through.
Ideally I wanted it ready for when I got off!

Your DH is a diamond stud fury?

derlor is trying to persuade us to go with them to les deux alps, need DH to approve it, will be quite expensive

Ria he is a chav stallion oh baby
he revs his monkey bike late at night

lol

DH is soo not like that, he is a nerd

know what you mean fury we have had to do exactly the same with an 18 month old at LA was vv piss*d off as the buggies were the last thing to come out

took the little DSs to music tots today. Was . The craft group in the next room sent a dragon to complaing about the noise though

DS1 just come home with an epic about someone splitting his lip by telepathy! Oh the joys

lol fury

am having an energy slump - need biscuits.

ditto but weight watchers does not permit. I will have to carry on gleaning every last calorie off my carrot sticks. I want to rival DKMA 5 lbs!!

DH says sell the bugaboo.

I will miss it's easy manouvering and fleecy fabrics.
I will miss it's chunkyness which for a klutz like me was a good thing.
I will miss those rough and ready tyres and the 'take me anywhere' ness of it.

I will not miss the size of the bloody thing, and trying to put it in the boot with shopping.

Don't know about charter flights but buggies only normally come out with the other baggage on the conveyer, (unless you're flying to Rome Ciampino, in which case they come out considerably later, wheeled in by the baggage crew when they've finished the rest )

I just ate an apple [virtuous]

Ode to an ebayed Bugaboo

LOL Sputnik

I dunno, I go for a walk and you all run away. Are you trying to tell me something? Found you though - ha!

While out went past the old witch lady who lives round the corner who glanced at C and said "Oooh, she's coming on, a right little fatso" . Now yes, she is chubby, but a) aren't babies meant to be? b) how could she tell as C was wearing a sowsuit which only leaves her eyes visible, and c) HOW RUDE!! I wanted to say "Well she is enjoying a wide range of food which will hopefully help stop her being a faddy eater later, but she's not moving yet so yes she is a little chubby, but the HV isn't worried and it'llall even out in the end, and I thought that as a parent and grandparent you would realise this and also know how very rude it is to call someone a fatso." But I thought it was a bit long for a put down.
