Does anyone know if they have any of the baby Brio sets in the Crossgates Leeds store please - particularly the Octopus one? I'm over that way tomorrow and would love one to put away for my son.
Sorry for being lazy, I suppose I could just call them if my kids allowed! :rolleyes:

Oh forgot to say yesterday, in the Pontefract store they had pink Hauck sets with a buggy footmuff, parasol and changing bag in down From £9 to about £6 or £7. A couple had labels saying the parasol was broken or missing, but still a huge bargain, and the parasol might be easily fixed.Property buying/selling timeline - currently into week 21
