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.

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? :-)

Not first hand but a girl that used to work for us had 5 of a family and she had a big 7 seater Seat thing that she loved. Her husband wrote if off and she got a Galaxy and hated it! She cursed it ever time so got in it. Sounded and handled like a mini bus rather than a large car.

9pm and I'm heading bedwards. I'm going to do my weekly list and retire to sleepytown - all that culture-vulturing today has exhausted me.

Goodnight lovelies, good luck going back to work tomorrow Harley, see you tomorrow.

My Auntie is on her her 2nd Galaxy, she loved her 1st one so after a couple of years upgraded to a newer one:)

I looked at one today but the seats are practically against the back window so no good for me!

I just mentioned to dh about Pigpen, he told me firmly, not to get any ideas! Curry is ordered and on it's way, K is in bed, J is on his way up and L will follow very shortly, aahhh peace.

I have a galaxy and i love it its a big car with lots of boot room and when the seats are all out you can fit a kingsize mattress in the back! you can also get the integrated car seats which mean no more faffing around with putting car seats in and out when you have adults wanting in! just the pull of a strap turns it into a booster and another a car seat! i dont think its like a minibus and have tried out a few and this was a great one! we also have a large flip down tv which is a godsend!

mel the seats all adjust they are on runners like the front seats and move i can fit my big pram and a weeks shopping in no problem and still have plenty room in the back!
i also bought a bak rack that fits on the tow bar for all the camping gear!!! it can then be stored whilst we all go out for the day!!
