Basl, I've just bought a BJCM footmuff off Ebay, and would say get one of those if you can. They have an extra fleece inside that you can zip on/off to suit the weather. They are lovely.

I think I need therapy, I'm in love with a pram

Claret, that Ziko is lovely, I love the fabric. Your Ds is so lovely as well. How old is he?

basl · 21/05/2009 01:34

5inthebed, thanks for the reply i was beginning to think i said something wrong as i have posted a few questions with no reply. Do you really love the BJCM? Have you ever considered the BJCE

NormaSknockers · 21/05/2009 09:05

Basl I replied to your post yesterday, 1 page back.

5inthebed · 21/05/2009 09:33

I had read your first post, but as I have never seen the colour, never replied .

I really do love my bjcm. It is by far one of the best prams I have owned (I've had a few). I was very impressed yesterday as well when I went to Tescos and popped the basket on the hood. It sat really well on it, the hood didn't go down any and it was great.

And yes, I would think about getting the BJCE as well.

Have you got your bjcm yet?

FlyMeToDunoon · 21/05/2009 09:54

Morning all. I am still struggling with this cold and DD3 is coughing so much it's awful. On the bright side DD2 is back at nursery.
Still waiting for my Breen Zapp to be delivered. The tracking claims that they tried yesterday and left a card but I reckon they just got too behind schedule, as the time is logged as 7.40, and went home.
Hopefully today!

4andnotout · 21/05/2009 10:13

Morning all

I took delivery of a pink camo P&T sport yesterday, it was lovely having something brand new and not secondhand for a change!
Now i just have to decide if i want to sell all my pink and white snunkie bits and get a camo set instead
I feel really quite decadent getting two new buggies in two days as dp arrived home with a pink umbrella double for when we go camping (i couldn't believe he bought it voluntarily as a surprise!)
Now just have to get rid of the MB as i have no room left in my hall and you have to go out of the back door and through the garden gate to leave the house!

FlyMeToDunoon · 21/05/2009 10:18

4andnotout. Congratulations on lovely New P&T.
I thought I was bad having to weave around pushchairs to exit.

5inthebed · 21/05/2009 10:24

I wish my Dh would surprise me with a new pram

He did joke about buying me the pram he saw in Tescos the other day. It was a £15 cheep thing. I told him I would rather carry ds3 than push that. I've become a pram snob

4andnotout · 21/05/2009 10:26

I couldn't believe it as i was just going to get a cheap little double from ebay for £20 or so but he kept turning his nose up and then arrived home with it It is only for camping when we cant fit the p&t in the car with all the camping gear, i shall be using the p&t all the time i think. Im hoping if my Mb terrain sells i can buy a couple of camo snunkies out of the proceeds, i might have to start ebaying a few bits!

basl · 21/05/2009 11:46

Norma, so you did thanks for that. I am waiting for my bjcm to arrive today and saving for the bjce. I am ordering a liner for the green/grey bjcm it is the dinasaur pattern. I don't know who i should go with Snunkies or Chunkle ? They both have the same pattern. My husband really likes the look of the bjcm and i can't believe he said just get it when my apex did not sell on ebay. It's such a shame as it really is a wonderfull stroller but i am desperate for one of these baby joggers. Thanks so much for answering my silly questions

littlelamb · 21/05/2009 13:50

Vigour just been picked up claret

ScorpiowithabigS · 21/05/2009 13:53

So far I'm up to £405 and 50 watchers! 3d 6 hrs to go.

And to think i offered it for £400. pah! (my denim bug cam)

Have been looking at double icandy pear?

NormaSknockers · 21/05/2009 14:01

Basl I would personally go with Snunkie as the quality it superb. I've not seen the green/grey colourway so would be interested in pics when you get it!

nicolamumof3 · 21/05/2009 14:44

going well then scorpio good luck!

i've only heard that icandy is heavy and seats bit small but not tried one in RL.

ScorpiowithabigS · 21/05/2009 14:48

There is nowhere around here to look at one though and i can't buy one without playing with it!

4andnotout · 21/05/2009 16:11

MY sil had a pear and it is crap. The seats are tiny, it is heavy and it veers when you steer it!

basl · 21/05/2009 16:28

Well it has arrived my much talked about bjcm. I love the colour and all the features i was expecting but i have to say the wheels and the ride does feel a bit plastic. It doesn't feel half as bouncy as the zia but i suppose has so many other good features. I must admit a bit disappointed. Maybe i am looking for something that can't be found in a stroller. I think the bjce is the one for me but will have to save hard now. Oh and my little one can't sit up in this.He is sloutching all over the place. Never mind i will keep saving.

claret1980 · 21/05/2009 16:40

Thanks Littlelamb! Look forward to receiving it

Will adjust the hood later as I don't want to risk waking ds2.

Ds2 is nearly 7 months, don't know where the time has gone!

FlyMeToDunoon · 21/05/2009 17:15

Zapp in Breen just arrived. It looks fab.
Poor DD3 is not very well so I won't be testing it just yet.

I will have to have a think and see what to keep and what to sell as three pushchairs is too much.

maxybrown · 21/05/2009 17:50

ooh Scorpio I'm so pleased for you! I can't wait to see what it sells for!

farrahplus3 · 21/05/2009 18:39

hello all, i havent been on for a while as had no internet oh the withdrawl!!
how is everyone? i bet you have all had loooooads of new pushchairs since i was on here last!! im seeking a new addition but not sure what i want yet .
anyone tried the obaby zezu? i know obaby used to be tat but that one looks quite nice!

5inthebed · 21/05/2009 19:36

Basl, have you actually took it out for a walk? I wasn't too sure when I furst took my BJCM out, but now I can't rave about it enough. (sorry, I know I bang on about it too much)

Scorpio, thats great, bet you're glad you didn't sell it the other day.

FlyMeToDunoon · 21/05/2009 19:48

Farrah are you Techno?
I have googled the zezu but think it looks clunky and heavy, sorry.

farrahplus3 · 21/05/2009 20:12

oops yes should have put formally techno!!
i did think it looked heavy which would be no good for me but wanted to know if anyone seen/had one in rl. oh well what next i wonder
