yep buggynuts bought a purple one and it was too laid back for a her dd.

Divatheshopaholic · 26/04/2010 11:05

Well, called Maclaren uk, which is told me to send it back to Additions for inspection, or take it to local retailer for the the same inpection but the repairs will be paid not free
Anyway, decided to send back to Additions, and wait&see what happens. Hopefully they will fix it or will get replacement, as i dont not want money back. So in case i get exchange, which quests are newer style? Im so Maclaren virgin, i havent clue

hi everyone sorry not been on for ages and ages

Am 38+5 today and now the owner of a Vibe, just thinking what accessories I need with it, I have the pannier bags but want a Bagabottle as well, have one sleeping bag but quite fancy matching pink and blue buggysnuggles for when DS is in the second seat. Need a new changing bag as well.

nicolamumof3 · 26/04/2010 11:15

oooh lovely SK! well done you!

diva they will only exchange exactly same to a butchers stripe be v.surprised if they exchanged to a newer model?

lillypie · 26/04/2010 11:19

Morning all, happy birthday sal

I love love love MB's although I am in a minority as I much prefer the terrain and the older model with the fixed handle at that.So much lighter and better balanced than the urbans imo.

At the moment I have a rollerbug which is like a terrain but with four wheels.DP loves it he says it's like a go-cart.I am not sure about the give in the adjustable handle

I also love the raspberry triumph that I bought from carrie and dd didn't find the seat position a problem at all .

Divatheshopaholic · 26/04/2010 11:26

Just waiting for pick up, see my luck, i probably get money back.
Lillypie, Mbs made for last. They are soo sturdy and comfy the same time.
Sweetkitty, wow not long to go now, I bet you are ready
Maxy, thanks for spitfire link, if i get one then we will be like bookends with matching spitfires

Tip toe gently in and hopes nobody notices.
How's everyone? Been on my friends birthday night out at weekend and had a lovley time. Out from 12am till and stayed over in Edinburgh then home the next day. Had a really lovely meal and night out. My best friend is up for a visit to Manchester and she loves shopping but has no kids. So may manage a little visit soon. x

FlyMeToDunoon · 26/04/2010 11:38

Basl hello! Hugs!

Quest not due until between 28th and 3rd May Oh well gives me time to make some paypal pennies to cover it.

maxybrown · 26/04/2010 11:42

Hello basl lovely to see you - trip sounds fabby
lol Diva - go on get one, we will look hilarious

sweetkitty · 26/04/2010 11:44

Thanks girls

have a question for you, what would you put in the P&T cocoon with the baby i.e. a blanket? was thinking of a Dinkysnuggle but I don't like the patterns they do them in

Am hankering after a Skip Hop Dash as well, won't be able to buy pink this time though

nicolamumof3 · 26/04/2010 12:13

i don't think you'll need much this time of year? i'd only line it with a musline or light sheet i think?

helloooooooo basl hugest hugs to you! how are you? email if you can x

5inthebed · 26/04/2010 12:17

Hiya Basl

Carrie, really sorry, decided not to buy geore footmuff. Think DS3 is going to be too big for it come summer. He is already 84cm . Need to buy clothes not pram stuff as DH pointed out last night.

Happy birthday Bexie

Diva, yes please on the clothes. What is your PP address.

maxybrown · 26/04/2010 12:27

Wow 5in he is tall isn't he?! Though we are all just short so everyone seems tall maybe

I measured James yesterday and he is 91cm - almost on the 50th centile, so not toooooooo bad lol.

5inthebed · 26/04/2010 12:30

All my boys are tall. DS1 is 7 next month, but fits into 9-10 year old clothes, DS2 is 4, but has been wearing 5-6 since about October last year and Ds3 isn't 18 months until next month and already wearing 18-24 clothes for a good month now. Serves me riht for breeding with a tall bloke. DH is 6'4''. I'm only 5'5 so they'll be towering over me in no time.

maxybrown · 26/04/2010 12:32

I want this out of stock grrrrrrrrr.

Maybe I should have a visit.........can I be bothered?

maxybrown · 26/04/2010 12:34

Oh well they are bound to be tall aren't they?!

My Dad is about the same height as you 5in we are all little short things! DH is positively a giant to us at 5ft 10

Divatheshopaholic · 26/04/2010 12:43

5in, Could you email me to urieej at yahoo dot com. Ill send my paypal addy.
Maxy, That hoody is soo cute, shame they dont do it up to 3years
Quest is been collected, so i have waaiting game coming.

maxybrown · 26/04/2010 12:46

The baby 2/3 stuff is quite generous though in some things - more so than the boys at times!!

They do long baggy shorts to match too

5inthebed · 26/04/2010 12:56

Have emailed you Diva.

Love that hoody! I'm going to JL on Friday, miht have to get one and-- the shorts to match

maxybrown · 26/04/2010 12:58

Argh, I might have to go in a minute......off to look at buses

lillypie · 26/04/2010 13:19

OOPS sorry Bexie happy birthday to you!

Hope you're ok basl xx

nicolamumof3 · 26/04/2010 13:53

I have just rearranged drawer and sorted their shorts into spare drawers...Tate has 16 pairs of shorts

luka has 25 yes 25 t-shirts i am a shopaholic its official. Dh just despairs.

carrielou2007 · 26/04/2010 14:23

Afternoon

5inthebed GP is a liner not footuff, sure I can't tempt you before I open the packet to put in MB???

How do I work out how old it is?? The frame is silver, the handle does not adjust and the wheels have like a screw nut to take them off rather than pop-off ones, not that I mind really as it was 101 with raincover which is quite good price I think??

I'm looking at spitfires now

25 tshirts Nicola, hmm, no sympathy from us we love you as a shopaholic, gives us something to aim for

Almost there SK

Lovely to see you again basl
