I am waiting to see if it holds his interest and if it does I'll order from the stupid website I'm quite annoyed tho because when I was finding the advert on youtube to show mum, I found the American one and its the same price over there but in $ so when you work it out they are actually getting it for the equivalent of £19 - RUDE!

Kindof - usually the older colours are cheaper, I got Chris a first class for my mums car for £75 :money:3yrs ago tho if you buy online you could take it to your local council road safety unit for fitting, you can find out if there is one in your area here: Local Car Seats Help and Advice
Also Maxi Cosi are just about to start doing a rival seat to the first class its called the opal, I think it might be a bit pricey though as its brand new so no old stock to get a bargain on, you can pre order it for around £200 at the mo

Your link didn't show what the fit finder said, can you cut n paste it? Some Britax seats have 2 ways of being strapped in which is quite good as they fit more cars, mum had to use the "alternative routing" on Chris's grp0 britax seat.

OHHH now I saw the Opal in teh Mothercare catalogue and I REALLY liked it but of course they didnt have any in lol

Do you know when it is released?

We bought a squishy headrest for his car seat at the min and some shoulder pads things for the harness straps cos that is my maine gripe that I think he looks so uncomfy

So I might hold off getting one till the opal is released cos I really did like it

Argh this is hard lol

ohh you can get it from mothercare website http://www.mothercare.com/Maxi-Cosi-Opal-Black/dp/B003VYH2T4/sr=1-1/qid=1281266982/ref=sr_1_1/280-3567943-4697420?_encoding=UTF8&m=A2LBKNDJ2KZUGQ&n=42764041&mcb=core

I think I am going to order it, yay or nay???? ILS are going to pay for some of it so the money isnt too much of an issue

If I order it to go instore do I pay now? or when I pick it up?

If I have to pay now if it doesnt fit can I get money back?

ALSO I SOOOOOOOO want this for E

kindofagilr - no idea if you watch bblb (and we don't but I heard a rumour so turned it on :eek:) but the Welsh girl serving that posh bloke in the food establishment is the infamous Rachel Rice I was talking about. You probably didn't see it, but she was there to see

Car seat - doesn't have to be there, but in the past always had little one there just to 'test it out'. If it's not possible, it's not too much of an issue.

Ohhh Ive got it recoreded I will look out for her

kindofagilr

Ok just rang mothercare, and she said cos they dont stock the opal instore, I could order online to be delivered to store, and if it didnt fit the car when we went to get it in that situation we would get a refund

Gonna talk to OH now but I know he will just tell me to do what I want lol

Afternoon,

Had a good day with IL's yesterday, was shocked to see what Katies cousin ate though - yorkshire pudding, chips, rice and poppadom, no protein no veg - she ate hardly any of it. When I went in the living room 20 minutes later they were both scoffing a bag of crisps!

What my ILs eat drive me to distraction so I took some chopped up mango for after.

The late night meant Katie slept until 9am

Glam - We're in Kidwelly that weekend

Sami - Katie keeps kissing your avatar

Kindof - Katie has the Britax as we needed the alternative routing in our old car, but can use the standard routing in this car. We also had the Graco pram and car seat.

Thanks for all your help with car seats everyone, it looks like we are going to go with maxi cosi probs the opal, cos on the britax fit finder it says it might not fit the car, whereas all the maxi cosi seats that maxi cosi do (although opal isnt on the fit finder yet) fit our car

Oh joy of joys, another milestone reached... I can't even go for a wee in peace now! I went to get dressed, came back to hear an unfamiliar banging sound... turns out it was Rhys, stood up at the loo, banging the seat lid! _pale_ Promptly removed him, then went to the loo myself, only for him to crawl straight in (left the door ajar so I could hear what mischief he was getting up to next). I love crawling, I really do

Elle - Wait until he starts asking what you are doing, then it moves onto are you doing a wee or a poo mummy?

Glam, have you found J's taste in food changing since teething? D has started refusing any king of pureed food or porridge now and only wants finger food....:o

I got fed up with people asking me "do you know what you're having" so I used to say "Well I'm told it's a baby, but the husband is holding out for a ps3!"

I hated "Why did you find out the sex? A suprise is nice"

To which i said "Well its either going to be a girl or a boy, not much of a suprise if im honest. If its a kitten, then i'll be suprised"

We have our dishwasher back on! :j FIL got a double pipe thingy and connected it for us. Glad i didn't wash up last night now, its all in the dishwasher... for testing it of course

Im going to be making a roast in a bit
