    My Gracy arrived today I don't know why but I thought it had zipped pockets on the side and it doesn't :( so unsure if I like it or not.
    I am still waiting for the Alva to arrive I ordered the Alva two days before the Gracy.
    Anyone know if this is the norm or do you think the Alva got lost ?:(

    :) Have you had a despatch email for the Alvar Tweets?

    If not look in your Amazon orders to see what it's status is.

    My Practicool, Gabbie & Gracey have been despatched today :)

    Yes the Alvar has two full size pockets from the top and also the two smaller zipped ones on the front - so plenty of room to keep things sorted without looking enormous.

  • I got my Practi-Cool today too. Love it! I'm not a snake fan at all but since the colours are quite muted it doesn't feel like in-you-face snake.

    Love the long zipped pocket on the front. I always like it when bags have big zipped compartments on the outside. Kinda wish the back pocket was zipped too. But I'm very happy with it :)

    Yes would be more useful to have a zip at the back - the velcro pockets do have a limited use.
