Ive just ordered mine today Smile half price on Boots.com got it with 2nd seat for £295 plus £40 worth of points bonus!!

It was the only one (after lots of research) that found where 2nd seat is suitable from birth.

Went to have a play yesterday in mothercare, is a bit bulky but then arent they all lol

that does help,i had the p&t vibe!Blushi was worried it wouldnt fit through my door,but the vibe did,unlike the nipper or the babyjogger city double...
what?! ive only had 5 doubles in 4 months...thats normal,right

sorry about the extra discount! ffr before you order stuff type the name of the shop and 'promotion' into google,ie boots promotion.
and it come up with some websites that tell you what codes to enter! 'promotionalcodes.org.uk' is a good (read 'safe') one.ive saved quite alot of money this way!! Grin

mine says its coming before 7th too,im soooooo exited!! let me know when yours arrives!Grin

Oh rite brill. what colour did you go for, ive gone for the denim Smile

Oh my 5 in 4 months LOL perfectly normal in my opinion, this is my 1st double but had lots and lots for DD1.

Do you have twins then or baby and toddler?
My DD will be 2.7 almost when DC2 arrives so dont think ill need one for that long but figured at least it can be used as a single aleta big one Grin

dd is 2.5 and ds is now nearly 4 months!! Shock

i went for the red...how did you get the denim so cheap? it was more £ when i looked!!

ive had a buggaboo bee and a p&t sport working quite well for a while ,as in bee for ds and dd on buggyborad or dd in bee and ds in sling,or both in sport,but this one wil do all of that in one!Grin

and i do like a new buggy!
plus it's very cheap eh?!

oh yeah and dd always wants to go in the bottom seat,but she doesnt fit in the sport...this one looks bigger though,what do you reckon? did it look big irl?!

I think it's 62cm wide at the back...I've just sold my B Smart 4 today and i think frame wise they're very similar if not the same...It was like a beast compared to my Frog which is 60cm wide with wheels on.

The denim was only like £15 dearer or something silly not a lot.

Id love to have a carrycot this time but not sure DD will go in the bottom seat so didnt want to waste the money, although there is one on ebay BIN £39.99 new Smile

Yeah the bottom seat does look wuite wide not sure about hight though as i was looking at that more for the newborn.
Think i may aswell get the britax car seat while im at it then always have the option to click on to chassis if DD will go in bottom seat

yeah i think the car seat is more practical than the carrycot ds would def be too big for it already! he outgrew the p&t cocoon before 3 months! at least you will get a bit more use out of the carseat!Grin
