The Brief and Frightening Reign of Phil

Advantages: A good message conveyed by a skilled writer
Disadvantages: Lack of character and story development

, wit and playwright, Oscar Wilde, ?is the virtue of the vicious?. If you want to understand why the flamboyant genius?s words retain their importance more than a century later, I urge you to read "Phil" (I will be reviewing his "In Persuasion Nation" collection, which came with Phil, in a second review as I think each part deserves its own attention ? watch this space). "Phil" focuses on the smallest nation on earth, Inner Horner, which is so small it can only accommodate one of its seven inhabitants at a time, while the other six huddle together in the ?Short-Term Residency Zone? of Outer Horner. Outer Horner itself has plenty of room and resources for its own inhabitants, who, for their part, feel a little resentful about letting the Inner Hornerites have some of their land for free. But when Inner Horner shrinks, forcing ¾ of the citizen ...

Review of The Brief and Frightening Reign of Phil - George Saunders

The phil and ted cocoon

Advantages: versatile and snug
Disadvantages: could be a little more structured

I bought the cocoon to go with my phil and ted sports buggy (with double kit) and found it to be very useful not only to add comfort to the buggy but also to use on its own as a carry cot. It fits into the buggy when it is in the complete recline position and is useful because you can move the baby from the buggy without waking her/him. The see through panel at the rear of the pushchair means that you can see the baby in the cocoon and can remove it from the front or the rear. The velcro patches helps the cocoon stay secure within the buggy but there really is not much room for it to move around when placed in the buggy so it is quite secure. I used my cocoon with the double kit and found that it fits snugly inside the space between the extra seat for my toddler and the main section of the buggy. The baby is very well sheltered but also ...

Review of Phil & Teds Cocoon Sport

The best double buggy around. By Phil and Ted

Advantages: inline pushchair, good looks, easy to manouver
Disadvantages: expensive, pump up tyres

When I found out that I was expecting my third child I decided that I would need a double buggy as my 3 year old is quite a monkey and we walk near a busy road daily. I know that at the age of 3 most children are walking but I think that it is best to keep your child safe. My partner and I tried so many pushchairs out but none were suitable for a 3 year old and a newborn baby. It was either that my child was too big or the pushair was too big to fit on pavements and through doorways etc. We looked at the Phil and Teds Sport model but the seat that you attatch to the top was just too small and my daughters head was above the hood (not a good look). Finally we went too a small shop and found the Phil and Teds Vibe model. You can purchase this pushchair in two colourways the first is all black and the second is black and red. It ...
