hello


I've got a mclaren and a p&t sport. We use the p&t most days but seem to need both seats less and less. My eldest son is 3 and sometimes does still get tired so we're not quite ready for 1 buggy. I wondered if anyone had used a buggy board on the p&t sport just with the main buggy? I think as time goes on we'll end up using the mclaren more so ideally want a buggy board I could use with both... Anyone tried this?


I do like the p&t as a single buggy, its nice and sturdy for muddy parks etc, but the mclaren is more compact and so much easier for the car. Also I'll have to use the mclaren and a buggy board for nursery drop off when I return to work in may...


Any tips on the buggy board front?


Thanks

Hi there, I have just done as you have described for the exact same reasons. I put my lascal buggy board on my P&T sport, (minus lower seat as 3.5 year old mostly scooters or walks, but occasionally gets very tired).


I did have it on my maclaren, which I tried for a few weeks, but I missed the P&T too much. I found pushing the maclaren with the buggy board like pushing it through mud. Since putting it on the P&T it's SO much easier.


HOWEVER - the lascal really didn't want to go on the P&T and they don't really seem compatible. The brake is kind of in the way, so I had to fix it to the 'higher axel' bit? The securing bits (sorry not easy to describe without picutres!)didn't go very easily around this axel as the material for the basket kind of gets in the way...Also because the top seat of the P&T comes quite far back, when my toddler stands on the board the handle bar is in her face, so I find it better to tilt the handle bar as high as it will go. It makes for an interesting sight! Toddler has to hold on quite high up as she is holding the handle bar too. Having said all that it works well for us for the 5 min walk to & from nursery....hope that helps!

    • Hubby had to retire from work due to serious ill health which had meant he was off work for several months at a time. His hospital consultant advised part time employment only, Signed on at Job Centre and asked them to send him on courses, especially IT has not computer literate or had a computer. Job Centre refused and insisted he applied for full time work even though he produced medical evidence from hospital and letter from previous employment detailing the reason why had medically retired him. He applied for the (then) disability allowance but was refused as not disabled enough and the fact he could work part time. Applied f or several part time jobs but when they knew of his medical history turned him down. That was 18 years ago. Disabled people who want  to work find it hard to find employment. I studied Disability and Employment in Holland as part of my degree and found at that time, the Dutch system more flexible. If a disabled person found a job part time, they still received a portion of their benefit as well as wages. If found a full time position, benefit suspended and were subject to regular reviews as to how they performed in  the job. If there were no problems, benefit was withdrawn, however if they found the work was not suited to their disability - they gave up work and went straight back to receiving their full benefit. If a disabled person finds employment, their benefits stop immediately. If they cannot maintain the work and are sacked, getting back onto benefits is very difficult, Give those who are able to work at least part time, the opportunity to have reduced benefits to top up wages.
