    Bumping this up because my SIL is just about to have a baby and is going to use cloth.... want to send her a really awesome nappy bag that will fit all the cloth stuff in it.... is one of these awesome bags available online? she is in Canada and it is probably easier to ship direct.

    Hey Mel, until you can save up for a new bag, why don't you invest in a D-Ring or clip for your keys onto so they don't get lost? Then get a little pouch for your phone & clip it on there as well. That's what I do

    i haven't started using it yet, but have the Isoki (just google and have a look at the reversible hobo bag) - the isoki site has a link to retailers - i'm sure one would be able to send it overseas Pixie!

    they're not cheap, but they are large, strong (metal feet, metal fastenings) - has extra bits and bobs inside as well as compartments (has an insulated bag, and change mat) - and is reversible (mine is a chocolate and purple reversible one). it's a little on the weighty side to start with BUT it has nice thick shoulder strap to disburse the weight and it's long enough to be carried across your shoulder/chest (even on this heffalump) like a messenger bag. has a decent sized external zipper compartment (whichever way it is turned) for your "mummy stuff" - will be more than big enough for keys, wallet, phone, and whatever other essentials you have in your handbag on a normal day (well for me it is - i don't use a huge handbag!)

    OK I found someone in Canada who can ship for me, I think I'm going to go with the reversible hobo bag.... I'm thinking zanzibar. the weird part though is that the person in canada said I should send my credit card details in two separate emails including the pin!
    I am going to ask for her bank details and wire the money, but if she won't accept that I will be back to square 1.
    Thanks for the tips!

    keeping card number and exp date seperate is a good idea - but pin?? ummm NOPE!

    i'd be looking at au retailers that send o/s - it's probably much the same price once you take into account exchange rates and things...
