Re: Nappies [diapers] & domestic waste

Hey there,

we are using ordinary kitchen sandwich bags and a little bin that seals well (available from kids'r'us) for bundling up our little mans' output. not sure how old your child is, but for the little ones (pre-solids) this is a practical and cheap option. buying into one of those branded "disposal-systems" can be an expensive, and from what i read, an ineffectual way of dealing with the problem.

on the topic of other things to bring.....

when we were last in the UK we picked up bunch of plain babygrows ("onesies") and vests from Tesco's. They came in packs of 2-3 for a couple of pounds. here you can expect to pay 10-20 CHF for individual items (and that is at the lower end of the scale). Also, last week we were looking for sleeping bags in preparation for the colder weather. they were priced between 80 and 200 CHF. not sure what the prices are in the UK, but I am sure they will be cheaper than this.

(in fact, i'm sure "everything" will be cheaper!)


good luck with your move

The context is that we are moving from London to Zurich at the end of this month. After extensive trawling of the EF, we see some things are more expensive and we might as well stock up and get them transported with us (nappies, baby items, paracetemol etc.)
