Morning again! i think we have quite different tastes then dis as i prefer both over the apples, i don't like the green inside the hood, just watching one on ebay then i will order one of the other other two. you might be able to send back without tags how long you had it as returns are 14 days worth a go tho? no point in keeping if you aren't going to use it.

I loved my obaby would have never tried one as always perceived them as cheap, but was really impressed with it and only £60!

carrie i took my xlr on hols not xt. xlr is alot heavier than any other mac i wouldn't think you'd find xt heavy tho?

carrielou2007 · 25/03/2009 12:02

We still have not made it out yet, dd just having early lunch then big walk so she will sleep.

I loved the green of the hood but will I feel it's not girly enough? I hated my bed of roses quest and that was super girly yet loved the I love you one and that was a similar green. Both annoyed that whatnots out of me for their rattleyness - xt only does a tiny bit. Should just stick to that I suppose.

I've had a look on ebay and the mumnetter has bought and sold stuff in the last few weeks so I guess she just doesn't want the black quest

Nicola did you use the 30 pounds discount code for your apples? If it still works I could just wait until the others sell and get one.

Hello, just been catching up. Am worse with my cold again. Very sore throat.

Oooh the sun just came out

nicolamumof3 · 25/03/2009 12:07

no i already have account with additions carrielou i can never be bothered with the rigmarole of setting up a second account etc. i never really intended on keeping it just that i knew i could return it for free so was just a nosey for me! as not seen one in RL yet. and i wasn't that taken with the design. think i will go black/lime just seen some nice red bubbles covers too i like on ebay. i think i prefer the old quest desgins tbh they had a lovely green bubbles ones a few years back. i think if i had a dd i would go super girly, i like the brown pink one carrie!

nicolamumof3 · 25/03/2009 12:08

oh no dunoon, hope you had a lovely day evening/yesterday for your birthday.

we aren't going to london now tomorrow as tate not well enough so can take my time in ordering a buggy. watching apples quest on ebay as would get it if it goes cheaper otherwise its one of the other two 08 designs i will order tonight.

FlyMeToDunoon · 25/03/2009 12:25

That was odd computer couldn't find mumsnet server.
Anyway, I would get black lime quest Nicola, Yummy!

MrsMagooo · 25/03/2009 12:26

Toally O/T but I just passed my theory test with a full 50/50 - YAY!!!

carrielou2007 · 25/03/2009 12:29

Mine has been on and off all morning. Every time I hit post is says page can not be displayed.

Well done MrsM!

DivamakesKimchi · 25/03/2009 12:36

Congratulations MrsM, im sure you will have bags of confidence and pass driving test.

FlyMeToDunoon · 25/03/2009 12:37

Thats great MrsM!

Hopi · 25/03/2009 12:39

What colour bubbles are you fancying nicola? Charlotte has the scarlett bubbles and I love it That was the buggy that got me addicted in the first place - I sold two others to fund that one as I just had to have it!!!! Over 3 years later and it is still going strong....just about! Lol!

Well done MrsM

BexieID · 25/03/2009 12:42

Well done MrsM, I got full marks for mine when I took it 10 years ago (was only 35 question then).

The newer style Fastfold has come and I don't think I like it, lol. Will need to test drive it tomorrow just to see if it feels better to push. It has the same basket as the Toro, the front wheels are smoother (like Toro), not keen on the harness and the release mechanism is not as fastfolding as my older one, lol. Took me ages to work it out . If I don't like it, i'll be selling it or swapping it for a Nipper . I need to see if I like it enough to store it in my wardrobe until the next child as DP treats my other one pretty bad (picks it up by the seat harness).

carrielou2007 · 25/03/2009 12:53

Have I missed something Bexie or are you just planning ahead??

We are going for walk as dd is very big grumpy girl but won't nod off! Typical, sky has literally just turned black, glad I didn't wash my hair this morning now

BexieID · 25/03/2009 12:59

lol, you haven't missed anything carrie, just me planning ahead! Already decided I might want a Skate or Toro for the next one, but if I don't like this Fastfold after taking it out, I prob won't like the Toro. Maybe I should just get a BN Nipper and be done with it? They are suitable from birth I think? Then Tom gets some use of it beforehand.

carrielou2007 · 25/03/2009 13:02

Ooh get a nipper cos then if you like it you know it will good for the next bubs and if you hate it, that's another one to cross of the list

Dd still putting her dominoes away vvvvvvvvvvvvvery slowly 'we don't want a mess mummy' get a flamin move on girl!!

BexieID · 25/03/2009 13:09

lol carrie. Tom is trying to poo atm, bless him. Thats why i'm getting some Mumsnet time!

pebbles79 · 25/03/2009 13:17

Well done MrsM!!

Arghh, I'm so sick of ebay making me sign in even though I've ticked the box to keep me signed in for the day.

My Skate deal has fallen through , will need to see about getting one from ebay now.

Waaaaaahhhhhh! I am so sad I really need to pimp my Bee but Chunkle Munkle have sold out of the fabric that I want. Boo Hoo!

MrsMagooo · 25/03/2009 14:05

Thanks girls Did pretty well on the Hazard Perception too, pass mark is 44 & I got 60 !

Hopi what fabric were you after?

That's a shame pebbles, the Skates do come up on eBay a fair bit....

Sawyer64 · 25/03/2009 14:33

Sawyer64 · 25/03/2009 14:35

Well done MrsM !

Spending alot of time lurching on this thread,I must be a closet Pushchair Addict LOL.

MrsMagooo · 25/03/2009 14:49

I spend much less time on here now, think it's because I'm really content with my 3 (well 4 but selling the Verve) so not lusting after anything - well apart from black covers for my BJCM Still, will never tire of pimping them with all the lovely accessories

nicolamumof3 · 25/03/2009 14:54
