do you think ex display would be ok?

ive been to the shop which is round the corner twice thats all!

sweetkitty · 17/04/2009 10:17

Morning ladies, haven't managed to get the lunamix out yet

Suzi - fancy seeing you in here

Dis - hope the XT sells for you, our oven blew up last year so I know what it's like, we had to resort to sticking new one ona credit card for a month

mamadiva - full report on BJCM please?

No mew prams for me, will stretch to a liner this month as we have a holiday in May.

Off to have a shower before picking DD1 and 2 up from nursery then we are off to a party this afternoon and I have to find some time to do some housework.

Disenchantegg3 · 17/04/2009 10:19

Haven't got a credit card or any money at the moment.

I owe my mum a bit, DH owes his mum a bit

When it rains it pours.

nicolamumof3 · 17/04/2009 10:19

depending on the wheel wear dis, if its very minimal you could get away with it??

otherwise just list as 'used once'

hope you manage to use lunamix today SK, the pink covers look fab on it, would look nice black fabrics and pink hood i reckon?

im dithering over quest just used it and love it soooo much. want quest and xt!!! but won't use both. i must stop coming on pram forums and get over it!

sweetkitty · 17/04/2009 10:49

know the feeling Dis I am hoping my stuff sells on ebay this weekend

nicola - you are Mac mad

nicolamumof3 · 17/04/2009 11:14

i know this year i've had two xt's, two quests, an xlr and a volo!! so this xt would be my seventh mac!!!

BexieID · 17/04/2009 11:43

buggyjo - where are you? 3rd or 4th dibs please. XTs are suitable from birth?

BexieID · 17/04/2009 11:57

I'm majorly stressed out as well. We find out on monday if DP is made redundant and will find out next month whether our new landlord will want to evict us all out of our block or not. Oh, and my period is almost a week late, which even though we want another child, it couldn't really be more bad timing than it could get. It could be late due to stress though but it's only ever been this late once before .

nicolamumof3 · 17/04/2009 12:20

oh bexie keeping my fingers crossed everything turns out for you. i know how you feel, i finish work in 2weeks, dp hasn't worked for two weeks. its a financial nightmare we nearly cxd wedding this week!

sweetkitty · 17/04/2009 12:22

Oh no Bexie poor you we were the same last month, luckily DP kept his job so that's us OK for now. Go do a test then you will know one way or the other!

Nicola - poor you as well last thing you need right now with the wedding coming up as well.

horsemadgal · 17/04/2009 12:26

Bexie, agree with SK, test now!
Good luck whatever the outcome.
M xxx

BexieID · 17/04/2009 12:39

Will pop into Boots before work today or after work tomorrow. Last time I was 3 weeks late before I took a test . I have a wisdom tooth coming through as well . Work will be a ball of fun, lol.

Disenchantegg3 · 17/04/2009 14:49

EMERGENCY - what do you think of these?

as an occasinal stroller?

Disenchantegg3 · 17/04/2009 15:14

bought one ... dunno if i like them...

was only £35 tho, local too, with raincover & adaptors for carseat - anyone want them?? lol .

hopefully will be ok, its only for dexxy when we do a big walk.

then i can sell mac & acc and get my oven fixed.

nicolamumof3 · 17/04/2009 15:48

i looked at those before dis, got some bad reviews but its like everything depends what you're using it for occasional use i bet its fine. its like everyone slags off zapps but i loved mine and would have another.

had weird message from seller of techno asking when i was going to pay but i never even bidded on it?!! strange.

tates been around house on his buggyboard loves it! so will test it out tomorrow im hoping he loves it and will get some more adapters for maclaren.

right off to work we go!! yuck.

sweetkitty · 17/04/2009 16:24

Dis - I don't think I like the colour sorry maybe because it's not pink you know what I am like?

Had a very short walk in the new mix today, very nice it was too, will need to do longer walk with it this weekend.

nicolamumof3 · 17/04/2009 16:35

lol SK you like you're pink

luna mix is a lovely push isn't the luna's always feel kinda bouncy to me, in a nice way!

sweetkitty · 17/04/2009 16:52

I haven't had the chance to really push it yet nicola was out the car and down a hill to the party, felt very nice though and much easier to put up and down than the Luna. I know I am going to scrape it getting it in and out the car though I always do.

You would think with 3 girls I would be sick of pink wouldn't you? This is the first time I have had a pink very girly pram though so am loving it.

pebbles79 · 17/04/2009 17:10

Oh, I love pink too! Think it's because I had the two boys first I like to go overboard, lol!

nicolamumof3 · 17/04/2009 17:11

i think i'd be the same!

5inthebed · 17/04/2009 19:58

I'd be terrible if I had a girl. There are so many beautiful prams out there, you'd have to lock my bank card away!

My friend has three girls, and has the most boringest prams ever!

carrielou2007 · 17/04/2009 20:26

Evening all.

Ordered dd a mini-climb/slide thing Little Tikes and some bright pink crocs. Can't think of any pushchairs I want...

Mamadiva can you pp me back??

Bexie wow so the timing could be tricky but anyway...

We are a very pink pink pink household, it's my fav colour and love my bright pink triumph for the colour just hate it as a buggy!!

nicolamumof3 · 17/04/2009 21:02

you should get some pink covers for quest carrielou!

im still dithering...quest or xt??!!! had weird random emails this evening from seller of xt that sold yesterday to another buyer now she's emailing me asking if i want??

5inthebed · 17/04/2009 21:09

How odd Nicola. Did you maybe ask a question about it?

nicolamumof3 · 17/04/2009 21:14

yes i did i asked about arranging my own courier but then someone else bought it on bin but hasn't paid she keeps emailing directly asking if i still want. i've replied saying i will have it if relisting. im not buying 'off ebay'

how you getting on with your mac? thought anymore 'bout a RF?
