I've always wanted to go there. Thats where Port Aventura is? Been planning on going with my brother and pals but we never did save up to go. DP isn't into theme parks either. My mum is taking us to EuroDisney for her 60th in 5 years. Tom will be 8 and DC2 4, plus any other grandkids if my bruv ever reproduces, lol.

i think thats a good price for the zapp dis it might have some scratches on frame but with two sets of covers and a travel bag thats good price i'ds say if covers are ok. i loved my strawberry is that what it is?

Disenchanted3 · 26/05/2009 16:07

she said red so i assume its that?? or is there another plain red?

waiting to hear back, she wanted to meet today but didn't get her email & its DHs birthday so couldn't make it, hope its not gone.

NormaSknockers · 26/05/2009 16:14

Could be red reflection which is the older colourway. Still a pretty good price for everything that comes with it though.

Disenchanted3 · 26/05/2009 16:17

its this one here, can you tell which it is?

pebbles79 · 26/05/2009 16:24

Looks like Strawberry.

NormaSknockers · 26/05/2009 16:56

Yes looks like Strawberry as has a s light pinky hue to it.

nicolamumof3 · 26/05/2009 17:12

please help,
need a cheap and light fold away double buggy/stroller (want a side by side)for our 18month old and 6 month old. needs to have individual reclining seats so they can sleep independently. we have a narrow gate and steps down to our front door so it needs to be less than 70cm wide unfolded. everything i've seen is over this width, going mad here, does anyone make a narrow one?

sweetkitty · 26/05/2009 20:03

Do you REALLY want a side by side? Mamas and Papas Twin Aria is lightweight and fairly narrow but I hated mine with a passion. Don't know about something like a Maclaren Twin or a Nipper 360, you would have to look at the dimensions online. I much prefer tandems over side by sides sorry.

5inthebed · 26/05/2009 20:13

I think you'll struggle getting a side by side that is that narrow tbh. Does it have to be side by side?

nicolamumof3 · 26/05/2009 20:15

i think you will too..sorry.

owl2 · 26/05/2009 20:16

hi, thanks for your advice,
we have a phil and ted but its no good for the car and its not great for them to sleep in as both seats don't really recline and the thing is so damn heavy and hard to push anyway, just wanted a light side by side, if it wasn't for the bloody narrow gate i'd be fine!

sweetkitty · 26/05/2009 20:18

My twin Aria could go through my living room door (standard size) but it was very flimsy and difficult to push. Also the seats were very narrow which is something to consider, my two were newborn and 18 months and DD1 was a very small 18 months but looked squashed in the seat, she used to elbow the baby for more space.

If I HAD to get a side by side I would get something with air tyres for definite.

But for me it has to be Phil and Teds all the way sorry

nicolamumof3 · 26/05/2009 20:23

i found p&t a breeze to push? not heavy at all? and that was with a 2.8yr old and 13m old in up to they were 3.2 and 17m. no problems loved.

you need air tyres deffo a mac double is fine for occasional use but is hard to push with two toddlers in.

farrahplus3 · 26/05/2009 21:20

anyone know a good pushchair for one handed pushing? needs to be reasonably light and parent facing, and cheap in money not in make am i asking too much?

nicolamumof3 · 26/05/2009 21:29

what about an infinity?

littlelamb · 26/05/2009 21:30

Vigour would be an option. I love my bee but it is expensive

sweetkitty · 26/05/2009 21:30

I agree nicola loved the P&T as a double it is fab. My Aria had little tyres and it was rubbish at pushing and kerbs, also the weight balance knocked it off as well (can you tell I detested it), I went and bought a Graco tandem which was a tiny bit better, I SOOOO wish I had bought a P&T from the off.

nicolamumof3 · 26/05/2009 21:37

me too SK i actually borrowed Fara's before i bought mine, 2mins up the road and i was sold!!! after 18m of saying 'oh no i don't want a p&t...i don't like this i don't like that about it' on practical level it worked i could walk up hills again.

4andnotout · 26/05/2009 21:43

I much prefer my new sport over the e3 which i had started to detest, mainly as it feels lighter, the hood is better and both dd's prefer the recline of the back seat, but now i have to srll all mu snunkie bits as they dont really go with the new one!

claret1980 · 26/05/2009 21:52

I love my P&T and will not sell until ds1 is probably nearly at school. it is just s easy to put them in and do the school run.

Had my vigour out a couple of times and its just not for me. It just seems too big for me. Dh has said that I HAVE to get rid of one. I like my ziko more.

Farrahplus3 if you are interested I will sell.

nicolamumof3 · 27/05/2009 08:11

Morning all!! hows everyone today? v.dark and grey here.

Still wanting to make a 'purchase' not sure what. prob just out of boredom. listed quest yday on ebay to go towards wedding funds...but don't really want to sell tbh!
