    off to offer congrats

    thanks jm...prob wont have a portable car seat.... well MIL has a maxi-cosy in hers with the fitted base i dunno if they can be used with just a seatbelt or even if it can be taken off the base unit. although i could forget to give the current carseat back to tesco when they collect the travel system on wed :/

    Will they let you on the megabus without a child seat?

    cannot see anything on the website about needing a childseat. I can buy Kian a seat and then would need a child seat.

    ....this might rule me out going. Need to look into this again on my day off. Must ask my friend she used to travel to Scotland with her 2nd youngest on the bus and i dont think she had a child seat.


    Cant afford to pay £28 in 2 weeks on the train.

    Do the coaches even have seatbelts, if not then a car seat would be no use anyway, have just looked at the megabus website its quite cheap aint it, i might have a few days out using them myself, def cheaper than filling up with petrol!

    thanks...

    as long as the coach is not full i can put him sitting beside for a little while anyway.

    there is an earlier coach as well that gets in bout 10ish. would mean leaving hme bout 7am though lol!!

    will see what the meet plans are and will decide then if i will definitely go or not.
