Rant So - On her first day back to work after maternity leave, the other half walks baby to nursery in the Norton pushchair pram thingy (gift from in-laws from Aus), and leaves in designated buggy park. Returns after work to collect baby and guess what. Some scum chav ar5e wipe ha walked into the fenced off buggy park, past 6 other prams and walked off with ours. I mean what sort of **** do you need to be to think stealing a baby's pram is OK??!?! Rant over
How could anybody be so low as to steal a pram. The world has changed a lot in the last 50 years. When my older brother was a baby his mother left him outside Woolworths whilst she went in to do some shopping, she forgot him and only realised when she got home. She went back and he was still there in his pram, sound asleep. You would not be able to do that any more, and not just because Woolworths doesn't exist and more. Can you imagine how fast Social Services would come down on you if you left your child outside a shop these days! Hubby has just revealed that his parents forgot him outside Sainsburys when he was a new baby. Wow you learn something new every day.
I have to go to the clinic here and it doubles up as health visitors surgery as well so lots of prams they have locks for them now. I would seriously advise that you buy one of those push bike cable locks and lock the pram to something to deter them a bit. I know unreal and low .. I was left outside Woolies as well!! Also have a scout in gumtree or something if your pram is expensive. Thats so dreadful ... I am also surprised the nursery don't have either CCTV or provisions to keep prams and buggies inside trouble is they take up so much room Its probably worth dependent of baby's age to get (I know it sounds horrible) a buggy (like a stick buggy ) that you use to leave at nursery. Save the posh pram for when you go out and about,
That's awful. Scum will nick anything these days. My mum did that with my eldest brother The 'rents managed to leave the other one at a petrol station somewhere (but then he did get out of the car and wander off) :biggrin: What were they thinking of??? (Going back for them, I mean) (= BIG mistake imo!)
They obviously needed the pram to get their 10th kid to the Jeremy Kyle studios for a DNA test. !!! Low life Scum!
Was Woolies that exciting that it really made new mothers forget their babies, maybe if they had used that as part of their advertising they wouldn't have gone bust.
Yeah, we are considering our options, but like many, cash isn't overly available so we only had the one pusher, it was expensive, but a gift and meant to cover all stages from birth to about 3 years. Rest assured the replacement will be secured with my Xena 13mm case hardened and alarmed motorcycle chain! Am keeping an eye on Gumtree / ebay etc.
