I would highly reccommend Urban Detour buggies from Mothercare..We have had 3 3wheelers from there and they are FAB!! The new ones have car seat attachments and pram attachments.. I love them!

Elain, I agree with you that newborns look better in hand knitted things!
My gran is a seamstress and has knitted countless items of baby clothing for folk, including my friend! Babies should wear hand knitted cardies!

I was very lucky as I got given one of these.....
http://www.silvercross.co.uk/balmoral_pram.php
It had been to Canada and back and has been renovated and this lady wanted it to go to a good home. Was such a dream to push round the shops and I walked for miles with it, though you do get stopped a lot by people saying how lovely it is to see a baby in a proper pram.
Happy days!

I joined the NCT when I was preggers, they can be a bit radical, like banning anyone from buying Nestle products because of their history of stopping mum's breast feeding in the third world, but they were brilliant and I got given soooo much stuff as was on income support..... and being Ascot it was lovely stuff.
I got a cot for £20 and a moses basket for £8 from the car boot, and my Mum was brilliant at car booting whilst I was expecting. Charlie had all Osh Kosh etc, but none was new.
I think the only new things I had was a steam sterilser as a leaving pressie from work and a good old McClaren buggy for going on the buses.
