    3 - no hand brake?! what does it have then? is it a funny lever or pedal?I've seen both in automatics before

    Mines manual too - it's got a button on the dash if you need to manually do the handbrake, otherwise, the handbrake comes on all on its own when you switch off the engine, and off as you pull away.

    I'm used to it now, but I always forget to release/put on the handbrake when I use OH's car. :o

    Just got back from getting Lily weighed. She is now 9lbs 3ozs :)

    And the midwife was really encouraging about me mixed feeding, i thought she would be all dissapproving and such...:o:o

    We have to make a docs appointment for Lilys eye now, its all swollen and very red and constantly gunky. Her eyelashes stick to her face and she cant open her eye at times, and i feel bad cause we're constantly having to clean it and she hates it :(
    I'm glad she was encouraging some are meanies but she's obviously a nice one :)
    just a tip for the GP app, they will want to swab her eye gunk and it needs to be wet n gooey to get a good swab so clean it before you leave the house to avoid it being dry n crusty by the time you get there :) if they can't do a swab there n then ask to take a swab home to do yourself it's easy enough but a faff coz you'll have to take it back again. if it's infected they'll give you some cream to put on it - my tip is to wait until she's asleep and ease the eye open to shove the drop in, it was the best way I found when Edgar's eye was manky.

    Evening all..

    I was good - only went to one shop :D Feel quite happy with what I've accomplished today although I don't think it's even half of my to do list :cool: Glad I didn't take Rhys to the hospital - the office I had to go to was up three sets of stairs and no lifts!

    This morning's mystery - how did he get from the middle of his change mat to here? :cool: He's gone upwards and off the top of the mat plenty of times, but never downwards!

    pp I'd be wary of getting an unknown pram, esp when the recon zias are cheaper(and I hate green :o)

    The only thing that bothers me about the reworked zias is that it says there may be soil marks, scratches etc - you don;t know what you're going to get. Has anyone here ever bought one? What was it like?
