I nipped into Clydebank after I left you and took it for a quick spin. Erin fell asleep in it, so she liked it, lol. Having 4 wheels made it feel better than Zia I had and felt weird having 2 low handles as am used to Skate on highest handle setting

basl · 14/06/2010 00:04

Hiya pebbles, thanks for getting the shout from flyme You clever sewing ladies. I would love to be able to do that. Does Heather make liners for baby joggers then. I thought she was just what's it bugaboo thingys.

Bexie do you like the skate. My cousins wife is going pram shopping form new born and wonders what is the best from birth.

BexieID · 14/06/2010 00:18

I really like the Skate Basil, wish i'd not bothered getting the P&T for just in case, lol. And the Mountain Buggy carrycot is really small. DP said it was like a coffin So, really do wish i'd had it from birth. Love the basket area as can get all sorts on it, and not just liquorice ones (actually, they would fall through the wee holes) I will use it until she is sitting up and then sell it so I can just use plum MB.

BexieID · 14/06/2010 00:20

Basil, hope you don't mind me accidentally calling you that, but thats how I read your username, so apologies

lol @ bugaboo thingys

basl · 14/06/2010 00:28

Oh that's good then. I will tell her. I never got into this pushchair milarky till the big pram was redundant so i am not really up on from birth. The wanted to know about travel systems etc and my mum keeps saying for them to ask me as i have an addiction to prams. as if Bexie what did you accidentally call me? Basil as in Boom Boom brush. you can call me what ever you want my luv i won't mind.

basl · 14/06/2010 00:32

Well you really would think that someone who complains about lack of sleep would be in their bed by now wouldn't you. Me and dh have had a chat and we are going to make an effort to get some decent night sleep by trying to go to bed at a decent time. It is almost as if i don't want the next day to start so i stay up for hours. I am going to make an effort and see how i get on. So there you go boom boom night night xx

Morning

Welcome back Nicola, glad you had a nice time and hope all the relaxing does not go to pot with all the washing and ironing to catch up on!!

Meant to be meetting my friend today with her little boy who is 3 weeks younger than ds but weather looking v iffy and we are walking to town .

Worse is that MB is due out for delivery today but she'll think me a right one if I say just come here as I want to wait in for a buggy . Her jaw it the floor when she heard the price of the cam and my little 'collection'. Hopefully then will drive to collect it from the DHL depo round the corner from Lillypie tomorrow whilst dd is at playgoup . Then I can go into John Lewis for a mooch at any new pushchair accessories

Thanks for coming to tell me that Pebbles Hmm maybe I could email heather at poshbugs, tell her I am hoping to sell liners and get her to give me a blow by blow account of how to do it. Thaink she will go for that?

Just have to experiment.
So off in a mo to tidy and stuff.

GeekOfTheWeek · 14/06/2010 10:32

Welcome home nic

When you get chance feel free to do a holiday report. I love a bit of holiday porn

We also need a description of what you look like as we all provided one a few pages back!

Dull and overcast here today. No chance of sorting all the washing.

nicolamumof3 · 14/06/2010 10:42

Geek if you love Greece the part of Kefalonia i went to was stunning. We went to Myrtos beach and to lots of lovely secluded coves and swam with the fish. It was truly unspoilt and idyllic. I will put some pics up at end of week. i've just ironed one basket full. ~Good girl deserves break~

GeekOfTheWeek · 14/06/2010 10:48

God it sounds stunning.

We have booked la pindeda, flying 25th jul. Sorely temped to change it to skiathos at the moment though as the price has just dropped going there and I have wanted to visit that island for ages.

Loads of interest in your liner. Think i'm 2nd or 3rd in line!

nicolamumof3 · 14/06/2010 10:52

i need to get pics of liner..can't find damn camera charger..typical eh!

5inthebackofthenet · 14/06/2010 11:49

Well got my money back for shoes, and went into JL to look at prams with my sister . Saw a black frame Bugaboo, it is stunning. Also looked at a BJC micro. Very cute and light, but I don't like the small wheels or hood .

Also went into Apple, I want an IPad. Thy are just fab! Maybe I can save up and buy one.

Nicola, holiday sounds divine

basl · 14/06/2010 12:07

Hi all, just back from school visit. Olivia has a primary 7 buddy called allan. Such a sweet girl and giving a olivia big hugs for reassurance. She was a bit shy today because it was he whole class she met today. Sniff Sniff i have collected her school tie and jacket etc and i can't believe my wee girl is going to wear a school tie.

We are now on our way to a nursery trip to South queensferry which is by the Forth Road Bridge. I am going to whoop whoop.

Oh i am dreading my home visit getting palpitations as i know i am going to be a quivering wreck. Ach what the hell eh. Don't get repetative strain now nicola have lots of rests and chats

GeekOfTheWeek · 14/06/2010 12:46

5in, tell me more about the black frame bug

Is the ipad a laptop? Have you got an i phone? Thinking of getting one next month but not sure.

basl, what home visit are you worried about?

5inthebackofthenet · 14/06/2010 13:08

DH has an Iphone, I like it, but not as a phone because I like my phones small. Ipad like a very big Iphone, but has more stuf you can do on it. You need a PC/laptop to be able to use it as well for updates etc.

pebbles79 · 14/06/2010 13:16

I just got a new phone yesterday and I love it, it's teeny tiny! It's a Sony Ericsson X10 mini and apparently it's just out - and it comes with a pink back, lol!

I'm selling my Nokia 5800 Xpress music phone if anyone's interested?

BexieID · 14/06/2010 14:00

I would love a new phone but need a new camera more and thats £650ish .

Basil, lol. Yes, I did think of Mr B Bush You can call me what you like too, as long as it isn't 'late for dinner'
