Never ask a child IF they need the loo... moodlum

CaptainNancy's (admirably succinct) family rules: "Don't be a dingbat/duffer. Keep calm and carry on. Dream big. Shut up and get on with it."

Recipe of the week

Carmenere's cinder toffee: sweet, sticky, made-in-five-minutes toffee squares that'll spark off a few 'yums' among the 'oohs' and 'aahs' of your little fireworks-watchers.

Do I get a trailer or baby seat for my bike?

(2 Posts)
i have a lovely trailer, and def worth the money. We ride on the pavement blush where there isnt a cycle path. Loads of room, great in rain and safe if LO fall asleep (they tend to lean to side on bike seats and makes you unbalnaced)

Toys R us had a lovelyinstep one, or cyber checkout had them online for £69 delivered

Hi all. I have decided to get ethical and hopefully fit at the same time. I have a bike, but I need to transport 3 Dcs on the school run. The eldest can ride his bike (I hope). The younger 2 are DD, 4.5 (starting school in September) and DS2, 2 yrs. DD isn't confident enough to ride her bike, so I need some way to transport DD and DS2. The road we will be using is a busy one with large trucks and vans. DS1 will have to cycle on the pavement (is this legal?). My options are:
1) Buy a babyseat and walk (about 40 minutes) then I can cycle home.
2) Buy a trailer for 2 children. But I would have to cycle on the pavement.

Any advice?

Links The simplest way to insert a link is to enter the link itself, surrounded by [[ and ]]. So if you type [[www.mumsnet.com]], the link will display as http://www.mumsnet.com. If you want your link to display text other than the web address itself, leave a space after the address then add the text before the ]]. So "Look at [[www.mumsnet.com this page]]", would display "Look at this page".
