Just how ludicrous a suggestion would it be to say ‘Get a bike’? Much quicker and more manoeuvrable than a pushchair, but maybe Paris has no cyclepaths (just lunatics)?

Here’s to incessant bloggy whinging! It makes my day, when it’s written by Petite, that is!

She might mean incessant whinges from your commenters. You don’t sound whingey.

I had a look at Sourav’s site. She needs a Welsh forum on it if she’s going to have a Scottish one.

Incessant whinging can be sexy, if done in proper bohemian/ennui fashion…

Or can it? :-p

Here’s one reader who loves zees all no matter what weather you’re going through.

Incessant whinge? Why thank you!

NB: The last time I looked, my first blogbirthday was looming, but certainly not my second…

A few years ago my mother-in-law told us she wanted to see Paris before she died. So we bundled up her (80 and in a wheelchair) and my kids (one in a stroller)and hit my city of lights. My dear husband lost 10 pounds hefting the (empty)wheelchair and stroller up and down the steps of the metro for the week we were there. I did find that while there wern’t too many offering help with the stroller, there was no shortage of help for the little old woman’s vacant wheelchair, andquite a few men and women offered arms to escort her down the steps. I have always found my fellow french citizens to have a warm heart for the elderly.

I’m glad you’re off enjoying real life.
It beats reading the seemingly incessant whinge re your non-marital breakup. Having stopped it at your blog from time to time over the past two years, I’m surprised it took you guys this long to figure it out. But having said that, and not wanting to sound mean, I’m delighted that, unlike other women who tend to sink themselves into a preferred oblivion, you’ve gotten up, dusted yourself off and you’re out there.

And there may you stay.
Life is not meant to be bloggy, baby.

Two friends recently visited Paris with their baby and a buggy. We almost got stuck in the turnstile with the buggy because the baby’s head got trapped against one of the bars. I felt so guilty but she took it well and didn’t cry.

But I’ve also seen it from the other side. Some guy in a hurry to cross the road decided that pushchair + daughter would be a good match for a moving SUV. Missed by a centimetre. *gibber*

Ahem, Petite, that’s close to boasting! Do have some sensitivity for the poor pedants deprived of your affections!
