    Would you not be better just buying a decent backpack which can be used for any purpose, and a reasonable booster seat which you put into the backpack when you are likely to need it, and take out when you don't?

    Having one product which only does one thing doesn't seem to be a good replacement for two separate things, which can be more useful, for the same kind of price. There doesn't seem to be enough space in the backpack for my liking (thinking of the amount of things my children take away with them), and if you want to have a backpack as well then you need to take another one, rather than just taking it out of the bag and leaving it in the car.

      I honestly have no idea what that means, or was meant to say.
      It's a tasty sandwich. There I was cycling back at pace to the office in eagerness to get tore in like, and the rain made the soggy paper bag fail and plop the sandwich was on the road like roadkill.

        I will use mine for primarily when flying, this time we did the actual booster seats in a carrier back on the flight, but it then means they can't take any toys etc to play with to keep them entertained in the airport, this seems like a good comprise.

          The iPad mini is an essential when travelling with the little one. It's like magic. Disembarking the aircraft I've had many a passenger say to me 'I din't even realise there was a a child on the plane!'

            They have Android tablets, and yes they are life savers, but I carry these with me

Last time it seriously snowed over here my Saab front wheel drive did as well as my V8 Discovery 3. So if you just want to look like yet another Manc WAG then be my guest the New RR Sport is great for people that own white stilettos and think champagne comes in yellow plastic but you dont need a 4x4 to drive round on a road....
                  You do realise you're talking to a CUK cretin?
                  He probably thinks he looks cool in a Range Rover Sport, rather than it shouting out "working class chav approaching!"

                    You're so out of touch with the poor and unwashed; "Working class" and "chav" are pretty contradictory terms. The only way chavs can have a RRS are to win the lottery, steal one, be involved in the drug trade, or be Wayne Rooney... most middle-class permies can't afford one!

                      You really are a tedious master of the irrelevant and inconsequential statement
                      A RRS is what a chav who suddenly came into the money would get. Or what Arabs buy for their feckless offspring.
