    DKAM, my friend's hubby bought her a xsara picasso while she was still recovering from a c-section so she didn't get to testdrive it. She said she wouldn't have bought it if she'd had a choice (he thought he was doing the right thing, but clearly not, bless him! ;)). She said it leans round corners and is generally just too high :o

    My friend's hubby is 6ft 8.. I think he bought it with him in mind ;)

    Incidentially, their son was 63cm at birth (40+13!). Rhys is only 62cm today, at 9.5mths! :o

    My mum came down with some of Ellies old clothes today, she wanted to wear one of the skirts so okay on it went and I was like "I think its a bit big, what size is it" thinking it was age 4-5.....

    AGE 1 - 1 1/2.......


    She still wore it, but it was hanging round her ankles when I picked her up :rotfl:

    It's money saving, being a dink! Longer wear out of their clothes... ;)

    Rhys is currently just in 3-6mth sleepsuits and vests but I think we need to get the 6-9mth lot out this weekend, but only in 0-3mth tshirts. His 0-3mth trousers are looking a little short now though :o

    True that Elle :D

    To be honest she isn't small for her age though, she's average! Just about the 50th percentile, and around the same for weight, maybe slightly above, can't remember, but this is why I rage about kids clothes being made for obese kids. No way should a skirt for AGE 1 fit an almost 4yo and STILL be too big!

    Of course it's moneysaving in its own way haha!

    Randomness... Tia, you were complaining about Charmin being different a few weeks ago. Just seen an ad in the Sainsburys mag for Cushelle, the new name for Charmin (not sure I like it, personally! :o), which they claim is the "same irresistible product" ;) (there's a 50p off coupon for it too if you're interested! :p)
