i have a chocolate brown and pink accross the body one for sale. was gonna ebay it. it is brand new but i have took the tags off. i took them off to use it, and realised it is a tad too short to go over my body (i am a larger lady!)
i did want £50 for it but open to offers.
i do understand your NEED for bags. i have one too

SoupDragon · 19/01/2008 19:47

I have 3. But I'm not selling them, they're mine, all mine. Although I might give one of them to my niece for Easter instead of chocolate.

ladytophamhatt · 19/01/2008 19:48

SoupDragon · 19/01/2008 19:51

You're too old and too short I'm afraid, I'd notice. She's 17 and about 6' tall

I have a small black one, a small white one and a gorgeous posh black one about A4 portrait size that is strokeably soft leather...

Gibbsy · 19/01/2008 19:51

I want one as well...... DP didn't take the hint at Christmas!!

hennipenni · 19/01/2008 19:52

(Sticks tongue out at soupy)

I only want a little ickle one, have dropped very very broad subtle hints to DH. As in "That's the one I would like and if I don't get it I may hve to sulk pretty please."

Have never felt the need for a bag before, chocolate, yes but never a bag. Perhaps I'm growing up at last!

i have loads he he he. i have a boundary mill store not far from me and they have some really good prices on their radley bags.
i have got most of the signature bags apart from one or two.
i think they are really lovely and dont care who thnks they are old ladyish!!

SoupDragon · 19/01/2008 19:54

I needed the strokeable black one and managed to hold off until Debenhams had one of their 20% off days

It's utterly useless as a bag for me though as you can't fit nappies, wipes and an assortment of toys in it! I use it when BabyDragon is in nursery...

maisiedaisy · 19/01/2008 19:56

I too have three and I love them!
I have just bought a new bag from Ollie and Nic and, I never thought I would say this but,I think I love it more than my Radley bags
I adore bags

SoupDragon · 19/01/2008 19:57

I adore bags too. I think it stems from the fact that my grandma worked on a bag stall in the market when I was little...

lizandlulu · 19/01/2008 19:58

i only use mine when i am baby free, which is about 4 times a year!! but they are nice to use when you have them
i bought a really unusual lilac over body bag one last week, it is quite big and could fit nappy wipes and drink in there. was well pleased with it

lizandlulu · 19/01/2008 19:59

i too adore bags. i have stopped buying cheap ones and just buy good makes. i would rather have 20 good ones than 50 cheap ones.
some ladies like shoes, but for me its bags.

maisiedaisy · 19/01/2008 20:02

Must admit, I like shoes too although I wouldn't spend so much money on a pair of shoes unless they were really special!!

Maidamess · 19/01/2008 20:04

My mother is collecting Radley Bags as 'investment pieces' for my daughter and my niece. I would rather they had the cash!!

Izzybel · 19/01/2008 20:05

Someone at my mum and baby group had a Radley changing bag .

lizandlulu · 19/01/2008 20:05

im really not botheres about shoes, which is a pity as i look a bit silly wearing trainers with my lovely radley bag!!
not really
i think my most expensive shoes are a clarks pair for about £30. i have some nice leather boots that cost more, but dont wear them all the time.

hennipenni · 19/01/2008 20:06

Crikey, Raley Porn. Theres some really nice bags here.

Lizandlulu - is your bag a large across the body one ? That's what I'm after !

hennipenni · 19/01/2008 20:07

Maidamess, might try that excuse and by lots of them (pretending there for my DDs)

OP posts:
hennipenni · 19/01/2008 20:08

BUY

maisiedaisy · 19/01/2008 20:08

I am expecting DC2 in July, maybe I need to invest in a Radley changing bag

Maidamess · 19/01/2008 20:11

Henni penni, I can't stand the things! I will let you know when we get our 'inheritance' and you can make me an offer!!

Izzybel · 19/01/2008 20:13

I've got 2 small ones. My sister is obsessed with them and she's got quite a few. Not sure how many though.

hennipenni · 19/01/2008 20:13

I must admit I'm not usually bothered about bags, but for some reason I really like these.
