Q Many of our parents want to leave buggies while their children are in nursery but we have nowhere to keep them safely. What do you suggest? A Unfortunately, no one seems yet to have produced a purpose-built buggy store. However, we do have the following suggestions which may work for you. Hope Educational stocks a giant, mobile trough in which buggies could be propped up (telephone 08451 202055, www.hope-educational.co.uk) and Wesco (0115 986 2126, www.wescouk.co.uk) does something similar. Although neither of these is deep enough to stand a buggy upright and close the lid, keeping them out of sight, they are easy to move around so could be put in a secure place. LFC (08458 506507, www.lfcdesptachline.co.uk) stocks bike stands to which buggies could be attached and, finally, Great Little Trading Company, has a large, outdoor chest (0870 850 6000, www.glttc.co.uk).
