Advantages: Good as a travel system Disadvantages: Not great as a pushchair
~*~*~INTRODUCTION~*~*~
My husband and I had been married a month when we found out I was expecting. We were over the moon but realised it didn't really give us chance to save. We decided early that we would opt for a travel system as it would save buying a car seat and a pram.
We looked around Mothercare and Babies'r'us at all the different options, the prices still seemed quite high so we looked at the old faithful, the Argos catalogue. We saw the Mamas and Papas Aria, it came as a pushchair on its own for £99.99, or along with the Primo Viaggio and Mamas and Papas accessories for £129.99. We decided to go for it as a package, again saving money.

-Suitable from birth to 3 years.
-Floating 5 point harness, allowing the child to move around. This is fine for a toddler, but not so much ...

I don't usually go to restaurants as part of a large group of people, but my visit to Soprano's in Palmerston Road, Southsea, was an exception to this rule. A colleague of ten years (mine of eight of those) was leaving to go and live with a Welsh farmer, so we had to give her a fitting send off. Soprano's was recommended to us by one of our younger colleagues, and knowing that it had won an award for best restaurant in the Portsmouth area in 2006, we were happy to go along with her choice; she made a booking several weeks in advance for thirteen of us (all women) for 7pm one Saturday evening. The superstitious among us were perhaps a little relieved that on the day only eleven attended.
Soprano's is essentially an Italian restaurant offering an extensive menu of salads, risottos, pasta and pizza, as well as filled panini and focaccia ...
Favourites Magazine
A Firm Favourite for us Both
I am starting to think that I am way too soft on my daughter, though one little sweet grin and the flicker of her long eyelashes and I give in so easily. I always said that at her age of only two, I would buy perhaps one magazine a month if that, though my daughter loves reading books and magazines and enjoys drawing, craft and stickers so at least magazines get well used, and I cut out the unused parts at the end and put them into a scrapbook for the car or restaurants so they don?t go to waste.
Usually my daughter tends to go for the Peppa Pig or Dora magazines, so when we saw this magazine with both of these inside it plus more, we thought we would give it a try.
Although the layout on all the ?Favourites? magazines are the same with different content, I am basing this review ...
