When can I buy one for DS? Something like Thomas the Tank. And how much would I expect to pay?

Cheers

If you're in London they are sold on lots of those road-side stalls that also sell souvenirs etc. I got one for £1.50 in Ikea! Also a better one from GLTC.

Mothercare didn't have any online and have found several Thomas ones but none that will be here by Wednesday. Off to Plymouth on Saturday shopping. Sorry that is my closest city, nowhere near London

Oh, I was thinking of mini-adult ones IYSWIM. Not the kiddie ones with characters on, have bought those in Woollies before.

Debenhams and Boots have a sale with the samsonite rucksacks - They are lovely with either giraffe/turtle or ladybird designs.

Fantastic bag mumbojumbo! Wish we didn't already have a house full of them! DS also has a Kipling sort-of ruck sack for sports which is nice.

Glad to help!

I ordered one for DS2 when he was about 3 months old! He's 14 months old now and walking!
