The Daddy Thread

Birthday coming up for a 7 year old girl and need a recommendation for a bike with 20 inch wheels. Frog 53 is what AI has suggested but is a saucy enough 600 notes.

We’ve a 2nd birthday tomorrow.

Went with the safe option of getting her 6 bottles of guinness that I’ll take car of until she’s 18.

Raleigh

Bike shop in Jetland has these. My wan is on a smaller Raleigh cos she’s short although she’s due an upgrade. You’d often see them on Adverts too. You should get one for about half the price of the Frog and You’d want your head examined to be spending any more on a 7 year old.

The Raleigh are a lovely light bike for kids.

The frog is a great bike
Would you buy one second hand?

Probably not. There’s two more girls coming behind her who will end up with it also

Second hand kids bikes are a grand way to save money, bikes aren’t used as heavily as the old days and they’re generally stored in luxury :smiley:

You can get a Frog 53 bike up here for about £350, it’s a lot of money for a kids bike but if you have others following it might make sense.

We took the little lad to see Bluey in the Olympia earlier. His birthday is coming up.

Basically a puppet show for 50 minutes.

It was good. It would want to be for 45 quid each!

Obligatory snacks and merchandise in your face too. Some gimic.

My lad likes certain songs in the car.

This means use of the voice recognition search function.

Yesterday morning Mammy was with us going to the crèche and tried the voice recognition but it didn’t work. I tried it and it worked.

This morning with just me I reminded himself that it didn’t work yesterday.

‘It didn’t work for Mammy, but it worked for you. You know why that is? Because you’re very tall!!’
