Fab title! Well done...
Isn't it cold today! Still, for us the sun is shining so I don't mind the low temperature. It's only rain I really dislike!
Which pram have you all used today and why?
I've used the vista because of the school run but I also had masses of parcels to post. At least eBay is going well.
Ds is poorly with a cough. I'm so glad even though he's three I have a proper pram and he can face me to keep out of the wind and it's easy to see when his nose needs a wipe too!

I knew you'd do it eventually!

So... I see the pushchair trader woman has had emails about new launches for 2012, what do you know?! [interrogates]

LOL!!
I can't believe there is much bypasses the radar of you lot for 2012! I know of two potentially interesting brands that PT wont know about [wunk] but thats a long way off. I guess as well it depends what interests you. We all know of pushchairs like the June, Promenade, P&T Dot, TFK Dot, Orbit, Bumbleride, Origami (not UK - they wouldn't sell me one but its worth a mention), Versa, BJCMGT, Cruz, Hauck Freerider and revised Duett, Yezz, Moodd, YoYo, Micralite TwoFold, new Nuna, Bubble, Jane Twone, Strawberry, new Peach Blossom - and heaps more...isn't that enough for 2012??!!!

I used the BJCM4 today. I tend to lean towards using the Peach a lot, so I am trying to fit a smaller pushchair in the car as well. I tried the B-Agile earlier this week and its simply too low. I got the BJCM4 out today and the manoeuverability is fantastic on it. DS looks much much more comfortable - he's not slouched because the crotch strap is further back. I just love it. I love the look of the BJCM4 rather than the 3 wheeler version. I think it looks neater. Its so sturdy which is the big difference for me. The one downside is that with having 2 front wheels, the fold isn't as easy because the wheels catch and you have to rotate them round. But thats a minor thing. I have to say I think I will be removing the autocatch on the GT because I do love how you can pick the BJCM up out of the car and by the time it hits the floor its open and upright.

nice title

just put my b-dual on ebay :(

Dear santa, if you please bring me a babyjogger GT, and a Babyjogger 2012 Summit I promise to stop buying new prams! X x xx

How are you lot getting santa hat smileys?

i am now, read somewhere someone signed out and then back in again and got them back, i did that and now i have them

or if you had not noticed just an an f to grin etc

all the smilies went off today for a while

monkeys, i bet you get a toro next year!!!!! i keep saying i won't buy any more and i have been good for a while now, got to be a few weeks but i know i will end up buying 'just one more'

Hello, good title! I'm fed up of knowing about pushchairs that aren't being released for ages. I'm not interested in the Yezz, so it's just the Promenade to have a play with next month. I guess you've heard nothing about the June yet, Twinkle.

The PT woman made it sound like info that hasn't been released yet. Maybe she just wanted it to sound like that.

And when you put the list like that there are loads!

My dad used the Graco Citisport...I was at work so haven't used a pushchair today...For me the new one i want is the I'coo Photon though it's not exactly 100% new but the 4th model i think.

I really need to start being frugal if i want to get the house of my dreams...Need to try and save £10,000 a year!!! Mind you i must have wasted around £4-5,000 this year on pushchairs!!!

i am tempted with the pod, but would love a trikidoo, but then i can see it being stolen if i locked it up, so the pod may be better as i can wheel that away with me. and of course i shall need a new wagon of some sorts, may be that one that folds, i have the link saved somewhere i think my pushchair days are numbered now though

I have asked the questions about the June - I will give someone a nudge soon if I dont hear anything back. But I dont think we will hear anything much yet. They thought the footmuffs would be universal.

The PT lady probably does know more new stuff. But there's a heck of a lot we already know. I am sure there's many more than even I have listed on the way, and every day I find something new to be honest. There's so much coming through from the EU at present which appear to have the correct safety standards but I have no way of checking.

I am intrigued by the Yezz, but I am a) worried about it being easily damaged and b) it sounds like a few bits of rope and umbrella sticks. I need to see it and see how strong it is, how well it works etc. I dont know where I could get to see one though. Quinny are usually a Mothercare brand. I need to have a search.

I have sold my ABC and was really sad packing it up today. I have to say I do get sentimental over pushchairs that I really liked. The ABC was one of the best pushchairs we owned. It was soooo much fun over the summer. But it takes up too much space in our house and it wasn't practical to keep it. DD wasn't happy when she saw me packing it up.

The B-Agile is clean and boxed too. After taking the City Mini out today I realised yet again that the handle height is much better for me.

Make that £6000 as i forgot my 3 Bumblerides!!!

suzie all though i don't want to add up what i have spent this year on pushchairs, i like the not knowing!!!! but no way near that much

I know i'm bloody crazy!!! I really really need to curb my spending in full stop...I spent £400 on clothes last weekend though in fairness it is to replace some of my tops that are around 10 years old.

i have been good and spent lots of money on other people over the last week, [although trying to explain to dp why i have to be careful in the bank is proving difficult, he will find out why on xmas day ]
i don't think there really is a pushchair i really really want or one that is due out, a few i think, wow that looks good, but nothing i would part with serious cash for. i really do love the 3 i own

Your DP will be happy on Christmas Day Prams
Suzie. But then I can't really talk.but as I tell DH, it's 'circular money' ie it goes round and round :o

Can I tell you my PMM today?
The two nursery teachers came on their home visit before DD starts nursery in January. They were surprised that she knew her colours and random numbers up to ten (she can do way more). They gave her a book of shapes. She rattled through them saying circle, square, triangle. They raised their eyebrows at each other when she said the last picture was an oval. But I laughed inwardly when DD went and got a shape from her shape sorter and told them it was a Quatrefoil!!!!!! I think it floored them!!!

lol, that is great tiggy
