maxybrown · 01/09/2009 20:40

Aye I do!! I'll go and pay now.

Did you get the matching jackets too.....you made me go and look at the catalogue again....grrr!

No buggysnuggles? I love my star one. Not used it yet though. Going to sell my Nipper one now I have that. Though sometimes I wonder if I should keep it as it's showerproof but I don't need 3!!

maxybrown · 01/09/2009 20:45

All done Nic

Sal will email you back now

nicolamumof3 · 01/09/2009 20:45

well i normally have 2/3 maxy i'd keep it as it would be handy in rain?

i love that star one too, i was watching one on ebay but got outbid.

trousers ready to post tomorrow thanks!! i haven't got catalogue. just online. i like the gilets. the trousers are really thick.

bought tate those tractor pj's but not that impressed with them size wise. put them on him tonight only just fit! and luka had huge tantrum as he's tractor mad he wanted them on!! nice and soft and cosy tho tate liked them!

Knickers0nMaHead · 01/09/2009 20:49

Nicola, thank you! Stuff came today think you need to change your pp addy now you are married

Knickers0nMaHead · 01/09/2009 20:50

Oh, and dd doesnt fit in the snuggles they look so nice on the p&t too.

maxybrown · 01/09/2009 20:52

lol. Yeah I keep thinking that about footmuffs...I'll wash it and see! It might sell well on fleabay as it is the pawprint one and you can't get those anymore.

I usually look online but fancied a paper browse! I really like the set up they have in catalogue - the trousers the gillet and reversible fleecey jumper with hood.

Poor Luka

nicolamumof3 · 01/09/2009 21:14

he'll survive, he's right into his tantrumming now!!

knickers thats my email i can't be bothered to change it all and all my contacts. im lazy what colour BS did you get in end can you take them back to JL?

how old is DD then thought she was younger than ds3? he's 2.1yr.

i'll have to pick up a JoJo cat then...

scattykatty · 01/09/2009 21:17

Does anyone know the best way to fix a raincover? I'm still with the IL's and they have a Pulse for the DS but the rainocver has a tear in it (it's coming away from the seam), don't want to buy a new one when it hardly gets used but do need it to work, should I just tape it or try and sew it back together?

Just been to John Lewis in the Trafford centre (DH says he's thrilled there isn't one near us at home!) bought a new badminton raquet, 4 Schleich animals, some Crayola colour wonder stuff, a hairdryer, a gorgeous navy duffle coat for the DS, a long sleve top for the DH and a pack of Quentin Blake notecards! OMG I shouldn't be let lose in JL

FlyMeToDunoon · 01/09/2009 21:18

Nicola have you tried a jane nest plus footmuff. They are really nice, fleece inside, vey warm, long, showerproof on the outside and have a storage pocket at the back. I loved my Fuschia one.
Just bought one off ebay to test on the XT.

nicolamumof3 · 01/09/2009 21:23

how much do they go for secondhand?

i like these jojo ones but colours wrong for black xt.

nicolamumof3 · 01/09/2009 21:24

sounds like a good shop SK i love JL one of my favourite shops lovely one in bluewater with big waitrose foodhall opening soon. yum.

scattykatty · 01/09/2009 21:29

I LOVE JL at home the nearest one is 45 mins away though

Oh and I forgot a long sleve top for the DS and Duplo Police set and Digger set gulp it's like an addiction...DH still doesn't know about the Bugaboo travel bag, breezy and cup holder I got from JL online just before we came here he only found out about the Littlelife turtle when I whipped it out at Legoland!

So can my raincover be saved? I'm not exactly Miss Blue Peter 2009 but I would try if anyone has any good ideas

nicolamumof3 · 01/09/2009 21:32

how big is the tear? i would prob tape it it hink?

scattykatty · 01/09/2009 21:34

It has two, one is quite big, the size of my hand and the other is tiny...

maxybrown · 01/09/2009 21:35

Scatty - I live in Manchester and if I go to trafford centre with DH I am literally whizzed round! I would glue the rain cover with clear drying glue.

nicolamumof3 · 01/09/2009 21:36

i'd buy a cheaper throwover from ebay.

nicolamumof3 · 01/09/2009 21:37

cheapy

scattykatty · 01/09/2009 21:39

OOOOOH that's an idea! I went to the Cheadle one too last week, I thinks it's better there, oh God I bought a Radley umbrella there... Now I'm too scared to look on my online banking

FlyMeToDunoon · 01/09/2009 21:39

The jane footmuff I just bought for £20.+post

scattykatty · 01/09/2009 21:41

PS, I mean I'll try Maxy's idea first then it might be ebay

maxybrown · 01/09/2009 22:15

Ooh I love the Cheadle one, it's really relaxing to walk around isn't it? Much nicer than Trafford centre one I think

BexieID · 01/09/2009 23:10

sal, I would be happy to pay £180 for the P&T if it wasn't for the mildew on it. I didn't have any luck removing the mildew off the Jive at my mums, so don't want to get it and not be able to clean it, iykwim. Does your friend still have instructions?

mumofdjandbabies · 01/09/2009 23:31
