Advantages: Lots of colours to coordinate with your car and good value Disadvantages: Although easy to adjust, it took a couple of attempts to get the hang of it
OMG we're pregnant again! I called my hubby...
"Erm, hun", I said, " well after 10 years of being careful (our daughter had just turned 10) I think our relaxed life and silent nights are going to be over..."
The phone was silent, but I could hear the the last few brown hairs on his head turning a crisp grey....Oh dear.
He came home from work with me waiting with open arms...he said "this is going to cost us a fortune" but hugged me with happiness.
Nealry nine months later....
We had listed all the items we needed and at the top was CAR SEAT.
How many car seats are there on the markets? LOADS!!!
We surfed and shopped and came accross the CONCORD TRIMAX in Mothercare.
It was suitable from 8 months which was when he would stop using his baby seat.
Cost: around £90-£120 depending on the store and sales

Advantages: Save you loads! Disadvantages: Can be hard to understand.
Do you own a boat, car, motorcycle, plane, husband, baby, bicycle, house, or commercial vehicle? Then you need a Haynes manual.

The newer Haynes manuals have numbers stating how hard the job you’re trying to do is. 1 is an easy job, say doing an oil change; and 5 is a hard job, say removing your big ends. To be honest, if you don ...

The HAYNES series of manual have been with us for many years now, we have all used them. At one time they covered just cars, but now their repetoire includes caravans, decorating, washing machines, computers, bikes, and even racing engines. In fact they have one now covering "MAN - All models, shapes, sizes and colours. 120,000 BC to present day" It is number 3931 if you don't believe me!
The books are produced by Haynes publishing in Yeovil, Somerset, and have been around for just over forty years now. They are still in the familiar hardback versions, which have wipe clean covers.
The format has always been easy to follow, and the manuals contain both a contents page, and an index.
The black and white photographs make it a lot easier to find the location and position of components. Personally I think ...
