grrr, they've changed the forum again...no line between posts and siggies so no siggies look like they're part of the posts. Very awkward looking and hard to read. Hmph.

The amount of money that most people spend on a variety of prams and buggies is probably the same as I spent on my Stokke and they hold their value for resale really well.

The new ones are even sexier - I was drooling over the new purple one the other day

Wow!!! I need the purple one. Has anybody got £649 to spare, oh, and another £37.95 for a blanket! Please?

I am thinking of buying a bike to take out for half an hour at lunchtime (there are loads of cycle paths round by my new office)...I just worry that I will never use it and it will be a waste of money.

We won £70 each on the lottery the other week - if I could buy something for that it would be perfect.

Tada! http://direct.tesco.com/q/R.205-4217.aspx

And you could put the £10 spare towards a seat on the back for Benjamin.

P*ssing work are p*ssing about with job offers for OH.. now they've just offered him a whole heap more money to stay where he is, same job really, more recognition, fancy title, same day hours.... Bloody HR dept! :mad:

Is this not a nice option? Or did he really want the shifts for extra time with Rhys? Good that they're recognising what he is worth though

:eek: I'm outraged my Thanks button has disappeared too!

The money and recognition (finally, after four long years of slogging his guts out and covering his old boss' butt on numerous occasions) is very nice indeed, yes, but we'd just got our heads round the time off with Rhys and opportunity to actually have the time to do family stuff Amazing really, they've got the CEO throwing money at the problem.. makes a change considering no one has had a payrise in the last two years and we've not made a scrap of profit for even longer :cool:

Mine's gone - maybe it's been confiscated due to over use.

If I were you I would be asking the lovely SS to create one of her lovely very strongly worded emails to TT explaining that whilst you would love to endorse their product on your mum-internet-group you are unable to do so because you appear to have faulty ones and see what they do.

I will but later, I've just overmentholated myself with Aveda Blue Oil in an attempt to clear my sinuses and sickness and can barely see to type :rotfl: my eyes and nose are streaming - but it feels soooo good

SS, totally random thought...just wondering how you are liking your Stokke? I could never afford to buy one, but I admit they are very sexy looking and I have total envy .

LOVE. It's incredibly manoeuvrable, very sexy and people have total Stokke envy when they see us coming. I also love that she faces inwards and is high up so I can interact with her, and it has all these different settings so Husband can take over pushing for getting onto trams and things. The only thing is it's too heavy for me to carry up the stairs, but then I struggle carrying the baby without the Stokke.

MFD they had the stokke at the baby show in all the new designs and one that even had a furry pouch thing you put on the handle to keep your hands warm! i fell in love and my sister laughed!

WANTS. My cupholder should be here by the end of the week, I am quite obscenely excited.

Edit: No, 3, my thanks button is still there :rotfl:
