Well I can't get a booster seat anywhere!

I don't think this new legislation was very well advertised or I would have tried to get one ages ago.

By the way I am only 5ft 2. Do I need a booster seat too? pmsl.

We are leaving on the 8/10/06 so will try to spread 3 seats for 2 kids between 2 cars - don't want to have to fork out for another 1.

Failing that just leave your kids at home.....might be better to risk being caught by social services than risk a £30 on the spot fine by the police!
