do you think it would look a bit gay on ds?

TheDMshouldbeRivened · 31/08/2009 20:37

of course not. Purple is unisex.
Its got a fleecy inner
You can always give it a go otherwise I'll park it ina cupboard for a zillion years.

are the cosytoes things easy to put on? we have always used a blanket but maybe that is a bit grannified

TheDMshouldbeRivened · 01/09/2009 03:54

yeah. They go on after the children are in the wheelchair. Not the rackety's ones though.

hmm, just looked at the website which says they can be customised for footstraps, anyone know how that works? Also looked at the Rackety's ones. £65

TheDMshouldbeRivened · 01/09/2009 04:21

SN stuff comes with SN prices unfortunately.

Riven how long is DD? Looking to buy one for my DD, but not sure which size to go for? She is 107cm long.

meltedmarsbars · 01/09/2009 08:13

Thicko here never even realised you could buy stuff like this - I made something similar out of a cut-up sleeping bag.

Phoenix4725 · 01/09/2009 08:15

if i9 did that thinks sows ear best thing i found while waiting for ds is to dress him in one of his bigger brothers raincoat

TheDMshouldbeRivened · 01/09/2009 09:18

dd is about 107 I think
