I wouldn't worry about it in your shoes. It may be getting more popular, but it is still not common. It's pretty and you both like it - what more do you need?

Wow! What an epic story. Congratulations!

That's absolutely appalling! What she said and the way she behaved was quite obviously sarcastic. In your shoes, I would definitely have asked to speak to the manager. After all, she's just lost them a sale worth quite a bit of money (plus many potential future sales) and could well be doing...

Have a great time in tri 3!

Maybe your little one's having a bit of a growth spurt? I've been having a hungry day today, too, but I've only got a couple of suspect looking bananas with me so I'm just going to have to wait until I can go off for lunch.

Yes! They would have been terry cloth squares. I know there are various websites and I think that Mothercare now stock them. My friend used them, but recommended using muslin squares for newborns as they can be folded smaller and dry quicker. I can't remember how she folded them (although...

Congratulations! Imogen's a great name!

I own a Canon EOS300D (it's a DSLR), but the battery's playing up atm and I haven't been bothered to get a cheapie one from eBay yet. He would still have mocked me, though, I know it. He seems to enjoy teasing me for some reason!

That's fantastic! Hope you get the house.
