Stroll Back to Shape with Maclaren
Recently while spending Little Miss’ nap time not-at-all-inappropriate amount of networking time on Twitter, I stumbled across some tweets from Maclaren who were talking about Stroll Back to Shape. As we all know, I’m fairly keen on getting my no-I’m-not-pregnant rather protuberous belly back into shape and I quite enjoy strolling. It would appear that [...]
