Hi


Thinking of taking our daughter to The London Aquarium for her 3rd birthday. On the website it does state that there are no facilities to store pushchairs. We are going on a weekday and would take our lightweight mothercare pushchair if she gets tired.Just wondered if anyone has been with a pushchair and is it ok in terms of space/walking around with the pushchair?

yep - echo that, its fine with a pushchair. Pretty easy in the week - also tickets are valid for 1 day so you can go, leave for lunch and then go back. Overall its pretty good - just wish they wouldn't have the penguins there as feel its cruel - they never see daylight or have any fresh air - whereas the fish mostly have very large tanks so seems less unsuitable!
Yes, completely fine UNLESS you go during the school holidays. I made this mistake once and it was a nightmare. Have been quite a few times now (with pushchair) and I'd say that in the week during term time it is fine (though there can be a lot of school kids in the morning, which is also fine as long as you don't need the loo at the same time they are going). There were a few steps I had to carry the pushchair up. I can't remember if that was because the lift was broken that day. There are a lot of ups and downs but there are generally lifts available, though again I seem to recall they were pretty slow.

    • Hi Theron. I didn't know about Zip vans but you're the second person today to tell me about them. Really helpful, thank you!
    • If you drive you can use a zip van, I've used them plenty before to move beds sofas etc
    • Our tenants association are looking for some to take some sort of fitness in our tenants association hall.  The hall can probably hold 40 ish people We would like a class once a week to begin with for the maturer residence 40 plus  We had a Zumba gold before but unfortunately the teacher retired.  The rates for the hall would be very reasonable for a trial period to cut costs for tenants and to see if it suits the teacher too  please get in touch via PM and let’s get moving!!
    • Avoid a private purchase on Autotrader or wherever UNLESS you know the tricks and scams of the used car market and are a competent vehicle scrutiniser. Believe me, the "private" seller market is a jungle for the unwary and inexperienced. There's lots of devious practices for the unaware and uninitiated. Trust me, I've been in the new/used vehicle  market for 30 years. If you really want to buy private, the n tell the seller you will buy it subject to a thorough inspection by an AA or RAC engineer. If they don't agree then walk away, fast.  As for auctions, that's even worse - especially with Copart where you never get to inspect the car "in the flesh". You have to work off their photos and descriptions which are rarely accurate. BCA and Mannheim auctions are the big auction houses and are better . It's  where the used-car trade buy  a lot of their stock. The trade buyers will spot a private buyer a mile off and will bid you up and dump you with an over-priced lemon so that you don't come back. Ex-Motability cars have a history of regular services and are well sought after. Consequently, they command a good price. CarGiant and some other outlets have a good percentage of ex-Mobility stock. Plus they check each car and so you have assurance. PS. I checked your link and could not find any ex-Motability cars there. There's quite a few high performance units such as Porsche Panamera and Jaguar I Pace.
