What do you do in the rain??
We have just sold our second car so I walk to town with DS in the carrier if I need to get out of the house. We have an appointment this morning and its a miserable wet day and I suddenly thought, how will I keep DS dry and warm.

I was just wondering that too, it's the last day I have the hire manduca and wanted to take DD for a walk but it's a yucky day here too. Will try the umbrella, if I can find it!

Jacket over top here too or a blankets (very tricky) or umbrella and leaving about 5 mins before bus came so no standing around (though doesn't always work out...)

Ok so I found a coat that was big enough and had it over us both and an umbrella, it did the trick nicely, DS fell asleep on the walk home

I have a swanndri buggy blanket that goes round the manduca nicely and tucks in under the shoulder straps. It's a really good windbreaker.
