It's not recommended to have a baby in a car seat for more than 20-30 minutesneverdespairgirl wrote: »I agree, that's mad. With a baby, 45 mins each way is not really that different from 90 mins each way, still all the hassle.A baby should not sit in a car seat for more than 20-30 minutes, as their back muscles are not fully developed

Did anyone like the property that the couple with the baby bought?0

No Jan, I thought it looked a bit like an office building.
They obviously didn't go for the traditional look, disliked beams etc.
Each to their own I suppose.
I did sort of like the pink kitchen.0 -
They were very picky for a couple living in a small flat with a screaming baby. I would have bought the first available house that came on the market that wasn't falling down!0

Phil is losing his touch.
He tried to suggest that they'd done well to get 3% off the asking price (down to £460K).
When was this programme actually made
?
I don't suppose they'll be running many repeats.0 -
I did actually like the new house the couple with the baby bought, lots of full length windows and light, but I am a little swayed by the fact that my current 'traditional' rented house has water running down the walls and mushrooms growing on the kitchen ceiling, so new houses are beautifully clean and enticing to me!Debt January 1st 2018 £96,999.81Met NIM 23/06/2008
Debt September 20th 2022 £2991.68- 96.92% paid off0 -
I agree baby boomer, that nearly made me choke on my muffin.
I think I read earlier it was 2006 they bought, I wonder what they would be worth now?
3% seems a very poor discount, but I suppose we don't know the full story.
That's what really gets me about these programmes people are influenced and rushed into such an important decision.0 -

They had a disclaimer in the end credits 'Prices correct as of Summer 2006/2007'.0
