Naughty Mrs Nobody
Last week, being the terribly impulsive and impatient buyer that she is, Mrs Nobody bought a buggy off eBay. She’s not actually pregnant yet but its a very nice buggy and, well, it was a bargain!
It’s an iCandy Apple with the carrycot and everything.

Sadly the Henry Hoover, the washing-up bowl and attractive (if slightly grubby) blue plant pot were not included. I do wish people would more accurately describe what they’re selling in the listing….

According to superstition, it’s very bad luck to buy kit like this even in early pregnancy, let alone when you’re just trying to conceive. So we’re really hoping we haven’t jinxed things before we’ve even started. We can’t even hide the thing in the loft as it’s pretty bulky I really don’t fancy trying to stuff it up there whilst precariously balancing on the knackered stepladder I bought 15+ years ago. So it’s been unceremoniously hidden behind the rocking chair in the dining room where it still manages to catch the eye every time I walk past. Poor, lonely buggy….
Can you see where this is going? Well our shiny (used) buggy is technically a travel system, but it didn’t come with the car seat. Mrs Nobody has found the carseat AND the matching isofix base on eBay and bidding starts at just 99p…
