Hi folks wondering if you could help me. I'm looking for a Quinny Zapp stroller to take on holiday and was wondering if you knew of anywhere to look for one. I'm bidding on a few on Ebay and have looked on Gumtree too. The cheapest new i can find is £99.99 but was hoping to get one for a little less!!
Thanks for taking time to read this

Thanks Boo!! :T :T I'm going to order one when Finnmonster goes for his nap. MFD mentioned some book she got at Sbury's so I'm hoping they have it whenever I make it there next week...DH got me such a cute card for Mother's Day I really want to return the favor.

My hubby is still very happy with his book...would thoroughly recommend it.

Hmm - I read through but I am not sure anything went it!

GP's - we are currently having 'issues' over MILs partner. Who has always been known by his name (by all the grandkids) but stoopid SIL started calling him grandad name last Monday and MIL has now started saying it too I don't like it, hubby doesn't like it and somehow we have to stop MIL saying it.

MIL calls herself Nanny but I call her nan


Benjamin is really unsettled tonight. We have had about 5 mins of kicking the cot bars and about 5 mins of shouting and signing...no crying though so I have left him to it :cool:

Which book is it Mfd?

I call the In Laws their name out of habit because when Aimee first met them they weren't quite grandparents... It's hard to call them Grandad and Nan...

My Mum is Nanny... My sister calls her Nanny <first name> which she hates so I just call her Nanny... My Nans are Nan and Nana... Makes it easier to know the difference lol...

Tia pm me your address and the fairies will set off tomorrow, I normally do them onto ribbon not elastic as then you get a nice big bow too. Would you like me to put some in with it?

I keep trying to change my avatar but it say's file too big, how do I get around it? Confused smilie needed!

Ah good idea with the ribbon!

I load it to photobucket then resize them on there.

Get a petite star zia, almost exactly the same as the zapp but cheaper and it reclines. Think they are £80ish new on ebay?

Sorry, £104 new, £60 reconditioned (used).

It is called 'Just Like Daddy' and it is full of baby and daddy animals who are alike (every page says Just Like Daddy), then the last page is about wanting a bedtime hug 'Just Like Daddy'

It was £3 from Sainsburys and hubby loves it!

Right, I'm away now ladies and gents.

We're going to the IL's this afternoon. Poppy calls FIL 'Other Grandad'! Not sure how he would feel about this if he knew. How does everyone else distinguish? The GP's are not keen on their first name being tagged on. Its ok with our Mums as they are Nanna and Granny

When i first read this I read it as the Drs don't want kids calling their grandparents by their first names :rotfl:

Oooo, the local Vicar has written a 4 page piece in the community magazine about Baptism, he's headed one of the sections 'Will the Vicar say no' to which he answered 'we will never say no', errrrr, yes you did, to lots of us, since when did Vicars tell porkies? :eek:

That's ridiculous! I would totally want to write in if I were you, but then I'm a bit like that

Alex is now a master at sitting. Has gone from wobbling to major sitting in a week. . Also getting totally frustrated and annoyed with himself because the comando crawling is just not working and he doesn't move anywhere, except in a circle.

Aww bless him!

Benjamin is also sounding very cute, MFD. And Boo, Isla looks just gorgeous in that pic (and the rest of the time too!)

Have had 3 Pimmses and feeling rather merry.

Thanks, MFD. I've just ordered from Amazon for £3.33. I don't really shop at Sainsburys so paid the 33p extra for convenience!
