    Im sulking just been bidding on a Mura pushchair and even though I bid £100 which I think is a good price, the reserve still wasnt met so it didnt sell :( Was looking at previous sales of them and they go for between £70 - £90 on average so dont know what this lady was after. There aren't any others in our area (reasonable driving distance) that I can bid on so gonna have to go back to looking at Speedi's.

    Anyhoo... Weezle lovely pic :D 3 I love the Stokke pics, OH thinks there odd and stated he doesnt like them :( we saw one in the local mothercare on Saturday there a stupid price!!

    If you were the highest bidder, you might get a message yet asking if you still want it. Or be cheeky and send the seller a msg saying that you have watched them go for between £x & £x What was she hoping to get for it and you might get it that way. Iv done things like that a few times :)

    hello all, hope all is well with you all,

    I can't remember the last time I sat down for long enough to read and post here - today we actually have nothing (well apart from the usual domestic stuff) to do and I'd forgotten how lovely it is. I've been manic sorting out my dad's estate among other things.

    Please, please, please stop with the beautiful shoes - I must not spend, I must not spend, I must not....SHOES!

    lol! I am not shoe shopping on ebay now, honest....

    Gorgeous pictures 3 :)

    (Stokke lovers on FB has a contest for cutest Stokke picture).

    Som, that's very annoying but I agree with Sparkle. Send the seller a message.

    Edit: Crossposted :wave: always, how are you doing?

    Great minds sparkle :) I did send an email in the hope that she may take me up on an offer. But I'm wondering how long to leave it expecting a reply as there are speedi that I'd like to bid on that are ending soon. Although OH is liking the fact I'm after a blue one when T is a girl!

    Always - yay for nothing to do :)

    thats rubbish Som, have you tried gumtree??? i bought my Stokke from Kiddiecare as they were the cheapest and had the most accessories free :D only 2 sleeps until it arrives :D

    TBH sparkle i dont want to be in the house but Erin is in bed so i dont really have a choice lol!!!
    I have been laughing at the washing machine and freezer stories as it sounds like a day here! Erin has realised if she goes on her tiptoes she can open the back door which is scarey.

    Hi always hope your good, have you looked at the IC shoes with the underware on them on ebay??? i have fallen in love :D

    Hello Always

    Som - hope you get the answer you want from Ebay.

    No swimming today as Katie has refused to have a nap and it would all just be a bit much by the end of the day, so she's just helped me decorate some fabric butterflies for her room.

    She also uncovered my old recorder and has been blowing it like a mad thing - she found it hilarious when I tried to postion her fingers though and when I played her London's Burning.

  • Hello all, I read back earlier this morning but all I can remember is shoes...I think I must stop reading this thread, I am beginning to come round to Irregular Choice shoes and Stokkes - 3 I love your Stokke in Red :grinheart:rotfl:

    I was working out the idea of moving my working days about to fit in the Birmingham meet - but I have had Liam's appointment through the post for his 12 month jabs - so I need to arrange next weeks days for that instead.

    I have another that loves to shout Dadda at every opportunity (and woof woof) but will not say Mama :( I wonder if it is a boy thing??

    Sami
    - Glad you got good news on Ed's appointment
    Weezl - lovely pic.

    just skimmed back - liking the pics. For some stupid reason I've never managed to post pics - maybe I don't post enough?! Also saw (in among some heated posts) about the Birmingham meet - when is it? Fancy another day doing something for me & Thomas (who is asleep :) ), how selfish is that!
