    Jillie is welcome to it if she can transport it back as I know she doesn't drive.

    Jillie - glad christening went well, not been on at same time as you since. Crap about the ELC thing though :mad:

    thanks...we had a great day :D

    Glam Is the gate the blue fabric pressure fitted one? I didn't notice them in my Asda (or online). Joe appears to have bent ours this afternoon, because it won't expand/shrink. Because of the way our stairs are, I cant put the screw in white one on. :mad: If they have them, i'll send OH out for one tomorrow (and some more nappies).

    No, it's one you screw the screws into the gate and then put the bits against the wall and expand until its tight If that makes sense!

    think its this one

    we had one at the top but now have one at the bottom as well because he can open the living room door and get up the stairs quicker than I can move out my seat! We now have a fireguard as well because he tries to eat the coal :o

    Not got anything else

    Jillie what a pain in the behind with ELC :( Bet there'll be a lot of disappointed people out there.

    No worries Som. I found it really interesting but am enjoying just getting on with it now so no rush for it back as it'll just end up with the pg books on the bookcase!!

    LOL - I am keeping my trap shut for a change! I don't understand baby gates, we don't have one and I don't know when I would use one....I have never been in a situation where I think it might be useful.

    But I am definitely the minority on this one!!

    I don't have baby gates, I have doggy gates ;)

    Also have one cheeky monkey still up crawling round the living room. I went to Asda. (No more bargains) at 7pm with Alex asleep in his cot. Back at 8pm and he was up sat on daddys knee. Sigh!

    Thanks for the link to the Narnia car seat, it was only down to £20 in store. I have ordered one as a spare, and the graco car seat for £15 also. As Joe's current seat is rubbish.

    Now i really need to not go shopping, but need new dummies and clips for the cheeky monkey.

    Will attempt a nappy change, some milk and try and get him down again.
