Its a bit of a joke really, how can it be proved? And surely, if a baby faces me yeah, s/he interacts with me, but if s/he faces the other way, then other people are more likely to come and say hello and thats lots of new and exciting people to gurgle/spill/laugh at?

Ha ha, I got a letter from the courts today about a fine and it said something along the lines of "if you don't contact us you could be arrested." I told the guy when I rang them that being arrested actually sounded quite appealing coz it would mean a bit of a holiday. 
He didn't see the funny side... ------------- Maya Grace (28/02/03)

We search everywhere for a rear facing buggy but not of them were any good for the area we leve. Just not robust enough or just way too expensive!! ------------- http://lilypie.com">

..I saw a lady today pushing a rear facing twin pram ..I was tempted to go up to her and say
"your a good mother ...unlike THAT one " and point to the lady with the front facing buggy that was walking by at the same time ..... -------------

I have a reversable pram.
I just face Hannah whichever way the sun isn't directly in her face... You'd think THAT would be the MOST important thing, huh. What will they come up with next. -------------
