I have one in the planning stage and has been for seven months. Should have something to show at the end on November.

Ah My cousin and his misses have one for completion about that time.

A word of advice Stock up on nappies. We were using pampers but found they leak quite a bit and we have now gone to lidl own brand (aldi is the same as well).

Much cheaper at £1.50 a pack for 24 whereas pampers is £5

It has been Aldi nappies all the way with our two year old twins and they are as good, if not better than, Pampers.

Well done that man...and woman.

I don't know why everybody uses Pampers? We used liners, with conventional terry towelling wrap-around squares and plaskit pants on top. Never had (much) rash and solids were easily wrapped in the liner and disposed of. We used Pampers for travelling and one catastrophic 72 hours of gastroenteritis (a whole 80-pack went in those three days) but never felt any pressure to switch to dielrin-rich, expensive, land-fill bulk... :shock:

We have four of those things. Two older versions and two younger. Decided to take time off then have another go and see if they improve. The jury is still out on that one. :mrgreen:

They do leak though. They let in half of the Mediterranean on our recent holiday in France. They have an amazing capacity to hold water.

I'll bet they are not as older as two of mine. 38, 35 and two at 2 years old, so far. I needed the rest in between.
