    We got a Valco Double Delight. It cost $250 from a baby shop. You can get them pretty cheap on ebay, around $100 to $150 in great condition. It fits through standard doorways, it folds pretty flat when put down, weighs 12 kg, seats adjusts to any position between upright and fully layback, has 2 storage baskets, large protective hood, Newborn to 18kgs each side. I've only pushed it around the house with Harrison in it so far. It seems good so far, I like it.

    I got the stroller kind and used it from newborn as the seats layed flat. Fits through a standard door and only weighs about 8kg if that. It cost about $220 from a baby store but was worth it. Mine are now just over 3 and 14 months old and i'm still using it. Actually its the only way i can go out with both, because my toddler is a runner and my baby will climb out of anything that does not have an arm and shoulder harness.

    I got a Valco double pram/stroller for friends from ebay for $5. Great condition, but i took the cover off and washed it all anyway and DH checked out the wheels and its close to new again.

    The item was pick-up only and just out of Melbourne, and i think people didn't bid because they were reluctant to go for a drive to pick it up.

    I'm also looking at twin prams as DD will still use ours quite a bit, DP and i are going to go to a place like baby bunting and look at some, see how well they fold, get them to check if they fit in our car etc and then look at e-bay.

    I think i could do with a toddler seat but we can't buy one for ours and saying that Ava will still only be 15mths old and i'm sure taking naps at times when we are out so i am looking at a side by side aswell.
    Am thinking a stroller rather than a jogger, love the idea of a tandum but had a look yesterday and the front seat doesn't recline enough and they are still quite bulky... will let you know how i go with my search.. feel free to give me any tips you find!

    Don't know if anyone has mentioned this idea, but I just got of those prams where bubs sit one if front of the other. it's nuch better IMO than the side by sides, as it doesn't create space issues when in shopping centres or trying to get down shop isles.

    I picked up one called a 'Lite Limo' for $26 on ebay, it was in great nick, and folds up to the size of my regular single four wheeler. Don't know what you think of that, but I'm loving it!!!
