This is as imaginative as I get!Wink
Frigg, my Mum works for the City Council doing disability adaptations to resident's houses. She goes to assessments with an OT, decides on adaptations needed, designs them, draws up plans, applies for planning permission and oversees the work. She's been in the same job since she was 18 so she's learnt a lot about all sorts of dsabilities along the way.

I think a death stare is worse than being full stopped!!!

saoirse86 · 08/08/2011 22:22

It is worse!

I was just looking at reports of the violence in Birmingham. How on earth is this supposed to help anyone?! Sad Angry

Honeydragon · 08/08/2011 22:22

the basket does indeed hold a scooter, ds stopped at about 2.5, buggy was for bus trips into big town only and dd is already a big walker.

saoirse86 ...... just thinking outside the box for you Grin

FriggFRIGG · 08/08/2011 22:26

No it appears to have spread...Why oh why do people have to behave in such a way???

Also i've done my first mess up on eBay and i feel really bad about it Blush

Tiggywunkle · 08/08/2011 22:29

Honeydragon · 08/08/2011 22:33

I've just heard Leeds Sad

How'd you mess up? Can you fix it?

Someone bought a pair of trousers on July 10th but didn't pay until the 14th...I had 7 pairs in similar colors but all too small!!! So did get a bit confusing...I filed away the paid email as though i'd posted them...I only realised earlier today but due to a freecycler turning up late i couldn't get to the post office...All wrapped up and ready to go but she wants them for her holiday on Thursday!!! Was originally going 2nd class but guess i'd better do 1st now...Though emailed back and gave option of a refund but only if she gets back to me by 7.30am as working all day tomorrow and no internet access.

Honeydragon · 08/08/2011 22:49

fx she contacts you either way, at least you've communicated, people appreciate that.

FriggFRIGG · 09/08/2011 00:37

it would be ace! small,light,easy to push,RF/PF options, extendible handle,good basket....i might weld two of them together.Grin

Honeydragon · 09/08/2011 00:46

The Hauck does seem alright on paper but I told Saoirse it would be rubbish!

FriggFRIGG · 09/08/2011 10:02

do you reckon the denim bugaboo fabric would run or stain??

Honeydragon · 09/08/2011 10:14

I really really don't like the denim so wouldn't get the opportunity to find out.

Apparently they do run when they get damp. I read a review saying that she only put her baby in dark blue while in the pushchair!Grin

Grin well,thats put paid to that thenGrin
saoirse86 · 09/08/2011 11:24

Frigg yesterday aswell and I designed a double zapp. It really is rather simple and I bet it's in the pipeline and will be out just in time for us no longer needing a double!

Now, I must admit that I never used to get Bees and always thought they were really funny looking. I still think they're funny looking when RF with the seat upright. But I actually think if I had enough money next time I have a child I might get one. Now, if they brought out a double Bee I might get pregnant just to buy one! Grin

Tiggywunkle · 09/08/2011 11:27

Lol, my daughter has a double Zapp dolls pushchair. A real life version would be fab. Quinny do have a double pushchair in Europe but it wasn't what I would have expected from Quinny!

Tiggywunkle · 09/08/2011 11:29

Actually I lied! I saw this photo ages ago and didn't read the blurb but someone made it!!

This one? It looks like it has a lot of potential for being a good pushchair with a few changes.
