    i will look on netmums again, i have done in the past.

    my first thought is towards a nursery, but OH tonight said a childminder, .. all just a possibility if i chose to go back to 5 days. think LO would very much benefit from being with other children on a daily basis

    About a mile away BUT it was the front wheel so tripped it on the back two wheels. :o If it was a back one would have been a lot worst :eek:

    Aaargh!! That is my worst nightmare...I really need to order some slime myself;)

    Hello btw:D, where abouts are you in the NW? And what buggy have you got that suffered the puncture?

    I may need other ideas ladies :o
