I am useless at this, lots ofd lovely help yesterday and thought I had found it and then everyone put me off it
I hate red, b;ack is boring and NO FLAPS
It needs to fit a spare set of clothes for a baby and toddler, nappies for both, snacks drink, keys, purse, phone etc

Thankyou lovely people

oh, shame black is boreing as i have a little company bag in black.

Nbg · 03/06/2007 08:25

Oooo I have been looking at loads.

When you say no flaps, what do you mean exactly?
Do you just want it to be open at the top with a zip?

yeah I dont want to have to lift a flap before I can open a zip to get inside
when trying to hold 'flight risk' toddler between legs and baby in arms trying to fold back a massive flap just to get to zip is MORE than annoying
