On visiting Braintree last week and reading a local paper, I had to cringe at the thought of a bursting nappy.

Then I read that this was the second time it had happened to the same baby.

Surely once burned, twice shy. Really, why would you risk it again?

Later in the article the mother said she didn’t want vouchers but better quality nappies.

Try Pampers or any other leading brand then.

That would be the answer.
