Glam is it the clip and go one I sold mine ages ago.

Speaking of ebay I now have a till, box of till rolls, changing/bath station and a whole load of junk to list and sell. So sad seeing the shop being emptied

Oh that reminds me I have one of those as well
The other one I meant was the Samsonite Rival Carrier

Pigpen - you'd need a minibus for 9 kids, you and OH!

SM - aw hun, it won't be long til you pass your test & get a car. But like Mel said LOADS of hassle unless you buy newish. I was fed up of needing 'something' done on the car, brakes, battery, oil change (which involved moving the engine!) that I gave up and have had a brand new car and then 2 not so new (3months and a year old).

I am so hoping they don't ring tomorrow and say it's not ready
I woke up in the night with Jack and was gutted cos it wasn't the morning so meant more time til I get it. Big kid? Me? Never :rotfl:

Done my meal plan for March and written my shopping list so I plan to go out brave ASDA as soon as Jack gets up and not go back to bed.

tia ... drag kids to school on a cool, rainy, snowy day ... doing the food shop when ever you fancy .. not constantly walking up hills while pushing a heavy buggy ... when you fancy taking the kids out you have to find the times or trains or buses then make sure you pay in advance or that you pay in advance and by a railcard just so its cheap enough for a day out but then it still costs you over £80 for a trip just to see the family for the day .. just to name a few ..

still not sure if its worth it :rotfl: x

Awwww how cute!!!!! :T:T:T Well done Molly! And I meant to ask, do you call Molly, Molly-wobbles like MrWeasley does?

<snip>

It was fun while it lasted and if nothing else, a huge learning experience. Would do it again in a few years once trade picks up, but with a lot more experience.

I have the best baby ever to smile and greet me :j *loves*

We never call her Mollywobbles but maybe I will :rotfl:

Experience is good but it's still very horrible. I hope it all comes together soon, lovely :grouphug:

Speaking of new cars I saw a VW passat estate while we were out earlier. An 06 reg and it was 5195 - that seems quite cheap to me for a 3/4year old VW? However, I do like my present car and we need the 6 seats it has for when we go on hol in July - otherwise I would be quite tempted!

Don't get me wrong Searching, I would not be without my car at all now. I don't think I could go on a bus either, in fact, with DH being a bas driver I should get a pass for free travel for me and the kids... nope, his mum gets it.

tiamai_d

Hehe, Jillie, you should get this one http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Urban-Detour-Mothercare-3-Wheel-Pram_W0QQitemZ140385369432QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Baby_BabyTravel_Pushchairs_GL?hash=item20af9ebd58

I have the cosy toe for it! lol

*rolleyes* tia .. mummy comes first ...

i hate dragging 2 kids on the bus and having to wait a bus that has space for a buggy or for a nice bus driver to let me on because for some reason bus driver here hate buggies x

Yes it will, DS1 doesn't live at home any more.. which is why only 7 need squeezing into the car

Awww, I am still hoping dh won't insist on the snip after this one, but I don't think I could go to 9......6 would be nice though:o

Sorry, I meant grand espace, was being lazy. The espace is fine for us because we just remove 1 seat, but the grand espace is huge inside. The trajet has no boot, you could fit a cheap unbrella buggy in and thats it, so we took a seat out, its now a 6 seater I hate that car though, really really hate it.

See, we do only NEED 6 seats, but even with 1 seat removed that would only really allow room for the double buggy OR the dog, not both! I have realised I will need a trailer for all our camping stuff(especially if i buy the tent I have my eye on;)) then buggy and dog can travel in boot.......

Right kids dunked and in pj's, toast and milk has been had, so I just need to order curry and a tesco shop for tomorrow.

tiamai_d

no no no, point is, I don't want it! lol!

Gisi do you let him taste things i have with all three of mine i just dip my finger in anything suitable just so it has a bit of flavour on it no real food and let them suck. The older two were never fussy eaters until they started school and i think now its more to do with being like their friends than not actually liking things and bubs will eat anything at all. He had his first crisp today bought some of those organic carrot puff things and he loves them although they are sooooooooooo messy :-)

Talking of cars have any of you had any experience of the ford galaxy its what im looking at getting now we need a seven seater? :-)
