I have the apron but not the raincover.

carrielou2007 · 25/01/2009 11:35

I think the scratches would show on the black frame.

I used mine yesterday (for the first time since september - I remember as I bumped into my ex and his gf and son and gf asked me about the buggy!!) I had one in the grape colour but was broken and I really didn't like the silver frame. Like on the volo the black frame is just a but unusual.

Nicola I bought my footmuff from that ebay seller (they don't come with it) if you do get one as dd was too tall to be able to use it, they sort of slot on the sides with clips, brill idea.

thing is nicola its actually called 4 seasons and not four seasons* thats whuy i have put it like that

carrielou2007 · 25/01/2009 12:09

Right, we're off for a walk so dd will have a sleep in the buggy if I can wrestle her into it before the party, it's a fabbi place, a barn filled with slides, climbing frames etc.

Lillypie, not sure if it will be morning or afternoon tomorrow, are you in/out tomorrow??

techno · 25/01/2009 12:30

have mailed you MrsM

lillypie · 25/01/2009 12:39

carrie I should be in tomorrow and would love to try the Dazzle

MrsMagooo · 25/01/2009 12:40

Have mailed you back lovely

Hopi · 25/01/2009 12:58

Morning all

Well my new Maclaren should be here tomorrow so I'm all excited about that - not sure why as I'll have to stash it in the loft until baby is here, and then for another 3 months after that lol! Still it is a lovely design and I can't wait to see it in the flesh.

I know what you all mean about stashing pushchairs in small spaces - at one point I had a double Maclaren, a single Maclaren and a Zapp all stuffed into the tiny boot of my Peugeot 206 and another single Maclaren that I used to keep wedged at the bottom of the stairs between the bottom step and a bookcase I also had DD's first travel system stashed in my shed - it was a Graco Tour Deluxe so not exactly small!!!! Now I've just got a Maclaren in the boot and my Toro and the new Maclaren in the loft ready for the new baby. But my old Maclaren is on it's last legs - another wheel fell off yesterday so I may have to try to find a cheapy replacement for a few weeks until I can convince DD to walk a bit more. She should....she will be 4 in March!!!!!!!

carrie I know you were thinking of taking it on holiday with you but if you do sell your black quest, how much would you be looking for? I'm also super, super interested in those Lulu Guinness covers when you get around to selling them

carrielou2007 · 25/01/2009 14:05

Took dd for a walk in the dazzle, she refused to go to sleep (dazzle is fab though but I really want the black xt so it's got to go!) so went out in the car, she refused to nod off. So went to Macdonalds for lunch and popped around the shops in the volo. I love it, so light, so nippy, so easy to use.

Dd is now screaming at me from her bedroom but she has to have a little sleep or will be so grumpy won't enjoy it at the play barn later.

Hopi I am defo selling the I love you covers, need to wash/sponge/etc etc them first them you will have first dibbs. Not sure about the black quest yet, may use it for my hols first but otherwise yes will sell that (if I like the black xt and then will take that on hols)

nicolamumof3 · 25/01/2009 14:20

carrielou if lillypie decides against your dazzle then i would def be intersted in some pictures of it. does the footmuff still fit your dd?

carrielou2007 · 25/01/2009 14:27

Have promised Babyjj first refusal though she has said she hasn't got the pennies I did promise her I would wait for a few weeks then if she doesn't want it etc so I have to hang on a bit as I have promised.

The footmuff is brill, it's like a boot cover with a detachable blanket but it has never fitted as dd just too blooming tall. Then again, I bought a black suede/furry buggysnuggle and she has to bend her legs to fit in it when everyone raves about how long they are!!

Went up to check on her with all the racket and she has done a hug poo no wonder she was shouting (am a terrible mummy so now we are sawing at the workbench!!)

nicolamumof3 · 25/01/2009 14:36

lol carrielou, hope she's ok now!
thats alright i prob just want the pushchair anyway so may get one of those ebay ones. should wait and see what my xt is like first when it comes but really want to try out a dazzle as well and love the black frame.

MrsMagooo · 25/01/2009 14:49

Maclaren listing all done Techno

carrielou2007 · 25/01/2009 14:51

Hehe, she does man-poos my daughter! Right, we are off to Puxton Park, catch up with everyone later.

Dazzle's are flamin gorgous Nicola, I'm going to order my black xt when I know my mum will be in to take the delivery but might have to keep the dazzle as well or I will only have Maclarens (and I don't like them remember!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

MrsMagooo · 25/01/2009 14:51

Aaawww don't worry Carrie got DS up from his nap & he was soaked through to his clothes - goodness knows how as his nappy hardly had anything in it Nice bath & clean jammies & he's quite happy

I'm the same re Buggysnuggles too - not a huge fan of them!

nicolamumof3 · 25/01/2009 14:52

Thats fab listing!!! i bet it sells now, so much better to show all the liners. which are gorgeous. i am so tempted, if only it had the xt handles i would have snapped your hand off for it i love the tan colour for the summer is super lovely! hope it sells fast now for you

nicolamumof3 · 25/01/2009 14:55

lol carrielou and how many maclaren is it you own now???
i only technically own one but have no maclarens in the house v.sad.
i soooooo want a dazzle but am worried if i get one of the ebay ones
here
and its crap condition i will lose out.

MrsMagooo · 25/01/2009 14:57

Nicola it's possible they could like new but hard to know!

nappyaddict · 25/01/2009 14:57

carrielou - what colour is your dazzle? My friend wants one but she doesn't want black unfortunately so mine is no good.

Hopi · 25/01/2009 15:02

Wow MrsMagooo That looks fabulous! Hope you get your £160 now techno

techno · 25/01/2009 15:10

MrsMagooo · 25/01/2009 15:16

You're most welcome lovely, I really hope it sells for you hunni

nappyaddict · 25/01/2009 15:22

nicola do you definitely want black frame? if you would consider silver frame you can have my dazzle.

techno · 25/01/2009 15:43
