Fimbo · 25/09/2007 12:59

kitsandbits · 25/09/2007 13:00

kitsandbits · 25/09/2007 13:01

i think the cheapest shipping is $145 - whicj the ebay people will psot for, so i dont think it would make a difference - unless they were coming over here soon

I think M&P has Buggies, that, whilst they don't have a proper buggyboard, tehy have something the toddler can stand on, without mum bashing her shins.

My BUggy isn't actually meant to have a tollder standing at the back of it, but the way the frame is build it's possible...and no need for a Buggyboard neither...

kitsandbits · 25/09/2007 13:08

Hiya

we do have a buggyboard- but i like the fact you can sit on these - or stand

he doesnt like to go in a buggy so he can stand sometimes, but if hes really knackered can sit down.

kitsandbits · 25/09/2007 13:16

it keeps saying error

i know some of them do, but it just seems the price of shipping is almost as much as the pushchair!

OP posts:
3andnomore · 25/09/2007 13:17

oh there is a seat-to-go around...but, same problem as the Buggyboard...it can bruise your shins, lol...when walking behind it....

The Buggypod isn't rated to well, not sure what the problems were, but apparently it wasn't good...I am sure tehre were some threads about it on here....

Have you thought about teh swiss strolli attachement...tis a bit like a bike you fix onto the buggy and you walk beside it....E-bay does them

Nbg · 25/09/2007 13:18

You know what a nightmare I have had kits!

I can get the Kolcraft one off ebay no problem.
It would basically cost £250 in total for the pushchair and postage.

Sadly the bloody thing wont fit in our boot!

3andnomore · 25/09/2007 13:18

try again

kitsandbits · 25/09/2007 13:19

Hiya

yes - only problem with them is the rain,

no protection from it - whereas these have raincovers that cover both kids.

I just think they are really good, just wish i could find one over here

well i have - but its 2nd hand and £100 and id have to pay for PPD shipping, plus its the heavier babytrend one -i wanted a joovy

OP posts:
kitsandbits · 25/09/2007 13:21

yeah Nbg

i was looking at them - got a quote off ebay too

but i dont really want a 'double' cause i want him to walk most of the time - but like i said when we are walking a long, long, way its not fair on him.

OP posts:
Nbg · 25/09/2007 13:24

I have a litaf seat to go.
They are quite good but again, no cover from the rain.

There is another fisher price one which has seats on it.

3andnomore · 25/09/2007 13:26

3andnomore · 25/09/2007 13:28

anohter Joovy, in orange this time

BabiesEverywhere · 25/09/2007 13:29

What about carrying a sling with your youngest in the pram and your oldest walking.

If oldest needs a break, pop them in the pram and sling the youngest.

kitsandbits · 25/09/2007 13:40

my youngest is alomost 16 months old and a podge - i couldnt carry him, lol
