    there was only one listed - a lady bug "sparkle" which both Ali and I snapped up - so she better have had two to sell or one of us will be peeved (and i think i ordered first - sorry Ali!)

    time to scan back through and find Gigi's list of how many times everything needs pre washing to make sure it is absorbant. it's not at all warm here but so far everything is only taking about 18 hours to dry (except sherpa - they're prolly 24 hours...)

    Ali, I live on the gold coast so I could get you an Aldi machine if you want.

    Maz, was there some drama about other people doing bling on nappies?
    Is there someone out there who thinks they have a monopoly on crystals?

    hmmm... overlockers.... hmmm... want one...
    ali - brilliant idea! Seriously, I'm sure I've asked it before, but do you think there's ever going to be a forum like this for the appreciation of modern cloth incontinence products??
    maz - Paris connection? well, DP is French... and Paris is just.. Paris! It's gorgeous and I love it there. I wanna go back. Today, s'il t' plait. Hope your back's better soon, luv. Shake ya walking stick at Jed and screech for a cup of tea with scotch in it. Purely for medicinal purposes...
    kat - get yourself some bling instead? Jack can't have all the fun (though I bet he tries).
    hey, I've had a silly thought! bling mama pads!

    Nana - There is a section on here for cloth pads in the your period and contraceptives section, and there is a cloth mama's section on NC. I think it is a matter of getting word out there and reminding women that the crap in the supermarket encourages thrush. I will send you a few to test when I get going I have a couple of HH ones that have hemp as the absorbent stuff, but I prefer bamboo and would probably put at least one extra layer in. OOOH I am getting excited about this now!! And if I did do bling it would be for specific pads like G liners or something.

    Shell - Is is cheaper for parcel post from the GC than it is from Vic?

    BG - Well if she can't deliver I will demand a refund. I have already paid in full and never got an error, so lets hope she has 2!!

    ali - yah, I know... I was thinking more along the lines of carers of elderly and incontinent folks. I know my mum would be horrified if she were old enough to need them and couldn't get a nice pair of cooshie velour incontinence pants for herself. She'd probably quite like side snaps too...( dont tell her I said that!) There's a market for them too! LOL!

    bg/ali - annette from iishfly is really quite lovely, if her site did muck up i am sure she will fix you up. i know there has (apparent;y) been negative info about her service, but personally i have found her wonderful.

    bg - enjoy the widdlewun! wardy, its going to a good home

    ali - i think your idea is great - has that market even been tapped yet? (incontinence i mean?)

    Oh was there ever... Bizy Bee did a couple of shimmer nappies which from my knowledge weren't actually SOLD (I got 2 given to me, Maz had some too I think?) and the sh*T hit the fan so to speak...

    I only really like the firetruck ish fly. Too bad there isn't more boy boy ones. WHY don't widdleones (sp?) make bigger nappies? They look awesome but no way Ash would fit in a small lol

    No more nappy news here.

    Missy Mel - Widdlewuns do make bigger nappies. She has actually just started making smalls, they were always medium and larges before.

    Someone I know is getting smalls and mediums for their store.. no idea who though *whistles innocently*

    Missymoo, wow, that is crazy. I work in the bling trade (sort of - i put bling on horses )and I was one of the first to do a certain style and within weeks others had copied. But there is nothing I could do - even if i could be bothered. You only have to change 10% of a design, even if it has a patent on it for the patent to be inefective.
    Silly, I was wondering why there is so little of the bling nappies around, esp since what is being done is only the tip of the iceberg, you should see what my wholesaler stocks. Amazing...
