[Divatheshopaholic]

Hiya, Started new thread here. Cant believe its May soon, i want new summery stroller now

Glad you've decided on the dress Nicola. I'm sure you'll look fine

I need to take my boys for a haircut, DS3 needs his trimmed, and it's long nough for a proper hairdressers now

Sweetkitty has had her baby

Aww I love a good birth story!
5in hope you are ok after pranging incident.
Nicola I kept meaning to tell you about new White Company shop opening. I have my discount email now too but need to print it. Have a great time tonight.
We trained it to Maidstone today in the drizzle. Changed some shoes I had ordered online from Schuh for DD1. They were too big and rather than faff about sending off for a smaller size decided to brave the wilds of kent and find Maidstone branch to exchange. All went well apart from the interminable wait for trains. Went to Waitrose on outward journey to kill time and bought a cheesecake
Yum!

How lovely

I've bought some off white fabrics and footmuff for the bug from crap hole Mothercare

Bought loads of stuff to make ds room his room for when he needs it rather tan the spare room/dump everything on the bed. Even bedding (for when his half brother/sister stays over) from Ikea and dd some more half price pj's from Boots.

oops cross posts lovely new baby

You have been busy carrielou
You need cheesecake.

Thanks Dunoon, we are all fine thankfully. DH said it would have been a lot worse had I not steered away before the collision. Can't even remember doing it TBH.

Washed the quest and it's all lovely and new, although the frame looks slightly watermarked. Will try rub it down later.

evening all hope ur all ok

5in glad your all ok after your accident. hope theres not too much damage.

Basl glad your little parcel arrived

And well done to sweetkitty!

Hi ladies, Well can i just tell you about a day out i had yestersay. It is going to be long.
Phone call from friend asking if i want to meet in galsgow?
Anger as i felt how selfish she never thought about nursery etc,
.
My Husband off so encouraged me to go.
This is my Best friend in the world but lost my way a bit with her. She is so glam and has no children but i grew up with her.
I said no as olivia was so sick but my H insisted on me going
We had glass of wine on train then she did so much shopping. I stood back in Awww as she tried on the most stunning xxx 100 clothes.
Not once did this gorg friend of mine make me feel bad infact we missed the train home and i never laughed so much. Somewhere along the line i have lost myself and i tell you never ever underestimate the benifits of close friends. That is always why i return again and again to this as i have never met such a woderfull bunch of girls when my life is in such a major crisis, I have learned recently with my odd night out that i am a person in my own right howerver my friend pointed out i will never change a wee softie.
Sorry like to tell all

Aww basl sounds a nice day out for you. Yes def can't forget your friends.

I'm just back from friends 40th birthday bash. It was fab, us Scots know how to party, eh basl?
The kids were invited but went without them yay!!

Where are you all?
No chance of a lie in here, kids up at 7am. Should have taken them last night (yawn).

Morning Yes Hmg it would appear so. I always think it's a shame to kids to these kind of things anyway .

Oh and Maxy whilst on my jolly to glasgow i got James that I'm a little Camper t/shirt. Hope you don't mind. Had to buy something and got Olivia soom groovy waterproofs from an outdoor shop and saw it. So he is going to be all camper van out soon at this rate. It was buy one get one free so no cost and i will send with the jeans.

Mmmm Cheesecake
Congrats to sweetkitty!!!

Morning everyone. I went to a friends last night for wine and a gossip. And you're right Basl, sometimes you do need to just get away from it all and realise you're a person in your own right.

I seem to have bought a micralite

Morning all!
Basl you are such a sweetie! you totally deserved that day out im glad you enjoyed.
How long did it take to Maidstone how many changes dunoon?
Well i am back obviously..had a bloody amazing night..wore my dress with bright pink high heels felt fab!

Whoooot woooo nicola sounds very snazzy. Glad you had a good night. Are your feet hurting today?

5in Glad you had a good night and yes still laughing about things now. Yeah you got a micralite another pushchair for me to copy you with and then send back lol. What colour? I do like the green one.
Nicola did you sell your quest ? While i was waiting for my friend i marched to JL to have a shot at all the pushchairs and would have died if someone asked me when i was due. That happened to me recently at the doctors when the health visitor told me i was coming along micely and i screamed what!!!! She said oh are you ?? and then ran away . Lol

oooh what micralite 5in. i did really like mine. only thing that put me off is hood is very small for summer and i like a big hood for summer.

basl feet are fine rest of me a little delicate. im actually in bed! had nice warm bath now to get up and get dressed we are going for nice sunday lunch meeting my parents there with boys. perfect! catch up later everyone..

ooh i have still got quest in two minds what to do as i do still love it but feel guilty as volo just sat under stairs for couple of weeks i really don't need both but i like them both!!

Got a red fastfold, newer style with the basket on the wheels rather than the seat. Can't wait to get it!

The hood never bothered me tbh, I'll just buy a shade a babe if needed.

Can't believe you're still dithering about quest lol. I want a strap for mine, might nick my friends of hers, as she wont be usint it anyway. She is GIVING me the pea green quest in September btw, because she wont need it!

5in, dibs on your Micralite

Hi all,
Bad news, called AD and they credited my money for Quest arghhhh[sngry]
I think, im in need of rescue and having apples
Bob is going good home, well he is going back to home where he came from, which i think lovely.[saddo emoticon]
is Maxy not around today? I texted Geek and no reply re tomorrow. Will email you, if i hear from her

Oh Diva, what a PITA about the Quest, but good news on BOB. I still hope to get one one day, but noticed plum MB on for sale here, so maybe i'll get that, pending MOT.

Skate is good for now, and have it in carrycot mode, which is much higher up and cosier than the cot on cdrive. And DP would say 'taking the coffin out again', which annoyed me.

i know 5in i am still dithering. I will decide for sure tonight tho diva and let you know or not. Just told dh and he was not impressed as knows i'll buy another (and yes i probably would ) I wish i could sell the volo instead but i love that too i am terrible atm.

just been out for lunch tate and terry asleep on sofa and luka on terry's lap watching telling. Tom in room so quite peaceful bar the telly being on.

Nicola, i called AD again, and complained they dd not give me chance etc... i could have had it back and try to fix it with independent Mac retailers etc...
They said they cant price much me Quest because its 139pounds. They offered me Volo or Triumph. I accepted Triumph
I think, i leave apples to you. I know you love it, there is nothing wrong having two mac, you have two little ones.
One question, does triumph brakes are old style? Please say its new brakes, the old one is soo naff.

Took Quest to shops today, the brakes are a bit rattley. And ideas how to fix them?

Bexie, you can have first dibs on micralite

What colour triumph did you get Diva? I love the green one.

oh thats good compromise i think diva. Yes it has new style brakes. I had brown one is nice colour but i still would rate the volo over it. they are v.popular tho if you don't like it at least you can sell it bnib and have more funds towards a quest than they originally gave you. Good for you!

im not sure is it def the brakes rattling not the wheels as they are rattly i haven't had old style quest with those brakes for any length of time so not sure what to suggest? sorry 5in will fastfold replace quest?

Oh i looked at pop sport yesterday in mothercare. you can just see its nowhere as good as a mac.
