    Default Ever get wet walking to school?

    Hi there, have any of you ever come across

    www.buggybrolly.com

    I always walk to school and used to get wet pushing a double pushcahir with a buugy board attached. Then I came across this great brolly attaches easily to the buggy (I use a Combi WE2) voila no more getting wet, covers me and the LO on the buggy board.

    That's an interesting idea... I go out so many times during the day to do multiple pick ups - some days I hardly ever seem to be dry!

    Thank you!

    That is something I would definitely be interested in with 3 school runs a day (4 on a Wed). Thank you.

    Have to say it is not great if there is high winds, but is any brolly?

    Helen, if you contact them through their web site they will find out if it fits your puschair for you

    Thats a brilliant idea. I gave up with a brolly and just have wellies and waterproofs now.

    Yes i will thanks,
    i dont always like wearing a coat even in cooler weather, i get too hot when walking, so this is a good idea for when it does rain.

    Helen, Talking of getting hot when walking, the inside of the brolly has UV protection, so I will use mine in the summer to cover the children sat in the puschair. Two for the price of one, bargain.

    That is such a good idea, i just hope it works as good as we all hope it does. I can imagine it is too good to be true!

    What a great idea - you can never push a buggy properly and hold an umbrella at the same time!!!! and not a bad price either!!!!!!!

    They had these on ebay.

    I was looking at them but I dont know how pratical they would be if it was windy too so I decided against one - I just get drenched if I need to go out lol

    Looks like a fantastic idea. Doesn't list my pushchair but does say that its not compatable with some Phil & Teds and I have the Phil & Teds Sport with the Double attachment on the back. I've emailed them to see if it is. I usually get soaked whilst the twins are lovely and dry.

    Great idea. Very windy up here though so probably wouldn't work for me.
