  • They made me buy a Stokke... And the seller obviously comes from a parallel universe where "excellent condition" means all the corners are bashed off, the fabric's faded, skanky and stinks...

    Ouch :(

    Have you stuck all the fabrics in the washer? Everything can go in, even the bag - 3 did all hers.

    Ouch :(

    :eek::eek::eek: I'm not supposed to feed Daisy crisps and chocolate at 2 weeks old???!!;);):D:p

    We registered her birth today so she's all official now:) Just Daisy, no middle name. Feel a little bit bad that she doesn't have one and DS does BUT we struggled enough to decide on Daisy let alone thinking of another name!!:rotfl:

    Am I the only one around here who's not got obsessive pram/pushchair buying urges???:p I suppose there's still time for that to happen!!;)

    Hugs for those where needed:A

    Have you contacted the seller? Opened a dispute? Ordered a hit on her?

  • Nope, I emailed the above to her and told her to either give me £100 back to buy a new textile set or I'd send it back to her for a full refund... She's refunding me once the money clears on Tuesday apparently...

    It depends on what crisps and chocolate Smartie :rotfl:

    Yay for official Daisy! :j Lily wasn't going to have a middle name, but we like Isobel for a first name aswell, so it got stuck in the middle :D

    I was one of the non pram obsessives, until i saw a few i liked online.
    But im happy with my Ora now :o

    EA, personally I'd be inclined to place an anonymous call to SS, as if she does all that can you imagine what else they might do (or NOT do) for the poor baby. :(:(

    Beenie, forgot to reply earlier that Finn is also a banana monster. He'd probably eat 5 a day if we let him!! He has at least 1 and 2 if I get fed up with him. He's being really randomly picky about food lately - in love with something one day, hates it the next.

    Well, score, I finally managed to sell my old pushchair! :J :J for much less than I wanted, but at least the darn thing is no longer gathering dust under the bed. And actually it worked out well because she wasn't interested in the car seat, so I got to keep that meaning we can wait until Finn's actually outgrown his to buy the next one!
    top 2013 wins: iPad, £50 dental care, £50 sportswear, £50 Nectar GC, £300 B&Q GC; jewellery, Bumbo, 12xPringles, 2xDiesel EDT, £25 Morrisons, £50 Loch Fyne

    would like to win a holiday, please!!
    :xmassmile Mummy to Finn - 12/09; Micah - 08/12! :j

    I dont know where she lives Aless, and i imagine they need those details.

    I won 10SBs earlier :j

    I often search for pregnancy related things as they seem genuine and not bot like :D

    Edit: :rotfl: I just went to search for Batman, but typed in Bathman. When i told DH he said "Joker! Bathman says to wash your balls!" :rotfl:

    And now SBs isn't working :(

    I blame DH... He's been obsessed with the Stokke for a while... But the long story is, I have a buggy and a rear facing pushchair and he's making me sell one before we have the new baby because we'll need a double... I couldn't decide which to sell and he wants to sell them both and get a stokke...


    (and thanks EA, I guess I'll list the Maclaren this weekend ;))
