OH and I have realised that we need a fairly robust pushchair as we do a fair amount of off road, tracks, fields etc. when walking the dog. We looked at the Mothercare Xtreme and the Mamas and Papas 03 Sport today - going to Kiddicare on Wednesday, quite like the look of the Quinny Speedi. Does anyone have any recommendations? Needs to take a car seat!
Thanks! _________________

I don't have any recommendations as such but we used a sling with George (wrapped him inside our coats if cold) and he now has one of those back pack things. Both 2nd hand bargains. Mind you only Hubby can carry it now as he's too heavy for me. _________________

Thanks - I like the look of the Speedi - will go and have a play and see! Clairebell, we have a baby carrier and used it quite a lot with Izzy in the summer but with her and 2 dogs, we'd like a pushchair as well! I have a chipped spine so have to be careful how much I carry so can't use the carrier if my backs a bit iffy! Thank you though, it is a really good suggestion! x _________________

We had a double out and about nipper 360 they do a single and it was amazing off road so easy to push even when archie was nearly three and Charlotte 18 months, would recommend it. We do alot of walking in delemere forest wth the dog and also the beach and it pushes great over all the terrains! Loads of handy storage, huge sun canopy I would consider a single if I ever had another xx _________________

Just make sure if you're looking at a pram with pump up tyres that you have a play with them first, I have the quinny buzz 3 and when the tyres are flat it is more than impossible to push (they're often puctured) where as I know someone who's pram isn't much different flat or not xx _________________
