Hello!

Is this the place we come to "fess up" our latest pram purchase?

I feel I belong in the shed if that is the case.....seems nice and friendly in here.

I am a bit of a pramaholic lately...

I do only own one at present mind (mutsy)! I just ordered a bee plus though!
I had also yesterday ordered the 09 bee - but have been worrying it's going to be too small for ds (2y)...so have decided to call mothercare to cancel that order tomorrow - and order the plus version instead!

Someone tell me I'm doing the right thing - the plus IS much bigger than the 09 one right? It does look very very nice (have not seen one IRL!).

Morning all happy holidays nic

Welcome Multimummy, you need carrielou she is are Bugaboo expert lol
I'm sure she will be along in a bit.

I am off for a spot of bargain hunting at the carboot sale!!

5inthebed · 30/05/2010 10:03

Bee plus is definitely bigger than the older version. DS3 who is 18 months doesn't fit into the older version but does the new one. Very as I want one.

Morning everyone

Morning,

multimummy, nip into john lewis to try a rl one. I have the original and I adore it. Ds only 6 months though so will probably get the plus next year.

We are off to a bbq later and it is freezing. Sunny but really windy.

Bet nic shopping at the airport now

basl · 30/05/2010 13:10

Awwww sorry i did not say bye to nic. BYYYYEEEEE NICOLA HOPE YOU HEAR THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well i stayed out a bit longer than i thought and my sister had a great time too. They had hired a private area of a night club and everyone begged us to come for just the one.
Anyway when i returned had a bit of row with h and i phoned a taxi and stayed at my sisters. She was then going on to a party with her husband so i went too.
Returned home and h and kids out and no idea where but def think something i going to kick of when he returns.

Multimummy hi and welcome . I have seen the bee+ in JL and i would say it does look bigger. I have never had one but i heard a girl and her mum talking about your very question and they reckoned it was bigger. Hope that helps.

Flyme you made me laugh with your running and posting. Sounded like Anica rice remember on that funny programme she did.

Multimummy · 30/05/2010 15:53

Have been to Mc and seen both bees irl now! Bee plus looks better for a 2y old. He would fit into the old bee but bee plus def has more growing room. Canopy on bee plus is also more than adequate!

5inthebed · 30/05/2010 19:12

Quiet in here today.

Been really horrible here today, wet and windy, but now the sun is shining . Hopefully stays nice or tomorrow as having a barbecue at my mams.

Basl, sorry about your H ruining your night last night. Hope it isn't too bad there for you x

maxybrown · 30/05/2010 19:28

welcome back dunoon! Hope it went ok for you, was wondering how you were getting on yesterday I like Basl thinking you are on treasure hunt

Had text off Nicola earlier saying she was in airport, jammy thing

5inthebed · 30/05/2010 19:55

I got a text off her as well . She should be there now, sunning it.

Dunoon, did the move go smoothly? Kids like their new house?

Evening!
Hope you are alright basl. Sounds like apart from H the night was good.
Move went fine. House so much more spacious. It's a luxury. Had to clean kitchen really well and bathroom. Someone else's grunge not nice. Odd smell of someone else too. Got a blind for the bathroom today in JL and looked at......the pushchairs
I thought the icandy cherry looked very good as well as the Bee.

5inthebed · 30/05/2010 21:24

I'd have scrubbed them both as well Dunoon.

at you eyeing up the prams. I love the new Icandy peach, would have bought that for DS3 if it had been out when he was born.

GeekOfTheWeek · 31/05/2010 14:16

Hi all,

BBQ good yesterday but home at 8.30 with a migraine. Ate loads

basl, are you ok?

basl · 31/05/2010 15:06

Hiya, Yes geek i am thankyou very much for asking. Been a bit horrible this weekend but i have just received a new pushchair so that makes everything ok
Here is my new bjcc which i have hunted for everywhere. I would have taken dis pink one and changed the covers but none to be had so sorry dis. The wheels on this one are the 2008 model and narrower slightly than the Elite and much narrower than the black sport wheels and you know me still as much a loon i have an all black Elite hood coming as not sure on the hood but it is not too offensive. It just fits out my door so very pleased.

ooh lovely Basl! hip hip - hooray - hip hip - hooray hip hip - hooray!!! glad you got back to a baby jogger in the end where did you get it form in the end?

maxybrown · 31/05/2010 15:29

and will you be buying a parent console for it now?

basl · 31/05/2010 17:30

Hiya Maxy, in the words of Elaine Page "You know me too well" or something like that.

I sent an email to Baby Jogger about the whole size problem and they were great telling me that the silver wheel classics where almost the same as Elite except for hood and the footrest and lighter and more narrow. 2008 onwards are the sport wheels and many more inches wider so i google searched for days. I did not want red and the only one i could find with silver wheels was black/silver which are discontinued so i just kept typing in different searches and then nursery world appeared and they were fab customer service. Highly Recommend them. The classic is perfect for me even though it just fits out the door with a funny angle but it does fit. Tall back like the elite and the mesh air vent on the back which i was not keen on is not on the classic. The wheels are narrower but still 12in so perfect. So when i get the black hood it will be what i have always wanted.

maxybrown · 31/05/2010 17:39

looking back...you could have done it differently?

Anyway......lovely! What's at the back instead of the mesh then?
