No not yet 5in just with the amount of bjcm and the elite and the classic and all the expensive liners etc i could have bought the company. Really need to have a look at the way i do things. I am so impuslive and worry after.
That is the classic gone but i have had to pay for delivery to me and now delivery back. Only fair as not a fault at their end just weird weird how the width was bigger Yawn yawn must stop going on about this now.

Sorry 5in about your LO.
Basl I have lost money on loads of pushchairs and made some rash decisions. I bought a Jane Slalom Pro new and then it had a wheel problem that put me off it and I sold it a couple of months later at around a £60 loss. I could go on. Some people are very good at breaking even or even making profit but not me. Now however I go in knowing that.
I figure that I have had a whale of a time trying lots of different pushchairs and after all not paying too much for the pleasure.

Afternoon evryone had a lovely day with my Mum

Basl, I LOVE the liner! I really want one for baby jogger, just not sure what, they are soooooooo expensive aren't they? I might get my friend (well my ex p's Mum!) to make me one when she comes back from oz.

I am not sure about wether to send my elite in for "repair" or not frightened of it going

basl · 13/05/2010 16:42

nooo don't let it go. So miss mine maxy but supose best get if repaired if you will be selling on at one point. Did you give me the measurements of the sport elite? Are your wheels the new non puncture ones?
I know a certain someone who would be great at making a liner for the bjce. She is a bit busy just now with moving house but she made a lovley liner for my black bjcm oh and guess what i no longer have a black bjcm. Can you guess?

the thing is Basl, I bet most people would not even notice the tiny little fault it has - that is why I am reluctant really. though kooltrade have been fab. DH thinks I should leave it be and forget about it.

Yes i did give youmeasurements think it was 27.5 inches wide - is that what you meant?!! I have no idea if they are non puncture?? Doubt it. How would I know?

How inconsiderate of her to be moving house eh?

FlyMeToDunoon · 13/05/2010 16:58

I know someone who did entertain mad thoughts of doing some liners while getting ready to move. She is lying down with a wet cloth over her eyes atm.


Gammon joint only just on the hob. Why do these things take so long to cook? We will be sitting down at half six. DDs will be crabby.
Grrrr. nothing else in.
Can you tell that I am unfamiliar with the gammon joint scenario?

maxybrown · 13/05/2010 17:46

ooh chips yummy It's almost time of month for me and so could eat a scabby dog

Well, ever since I got it (I have been ignoring it) it is ever so ever so slightly "out" the frame that is.....so if you look down from the handle the right side looks ever so slightly lower. It would need pointing out to most people though - you know one of those things you don't notice til someone says?

I contacted kooltrade and they say I have to take it to shop and shop send it to them. Kooltrade is only up the road from me though but it has to go through where I have bought it from. I would not trust the shop i bought it from with it, though would trust kooltrade. I just wouldnt want money back as i wouldn't get one for the price I paid, plus I would want exactly same, black/stone sport.......but maybe i could be fixed. BUT (sorry you asked?) because it is so bloomin minor I can't be bothered......can I? DH would have to take me at weekend with it with it's box.

Sorry for long drawn out description - but you all must be used to it by now

oh yes!!

Dunoon - frame is not exactly bent, just out. I can push it up slightly to make it even but it is within the little bit where the fold is...........if that makes sense?
