my 2 year-old grand daughter loves the trail buggy, but conversations a bit stilted.
I wouldnc't like to use it in traffic, though : too much fumes down there.

I use front panniers and a baby seat on my solo. My Circe tandem will set up for baby seat plus panniers plus brompton bag or even 2 babyseats. The Yepp mini (or Bobike mini) is an option if you have enough space and are upright enough. Practical cycles in Lytham have some rack extenders to use panniers with a child seat and lots of other cool ideas. A child trailer gives you lots of storage and child space and leaves room for panniers as well but can be a pain to store and awkward if you have any barriers to negotiate.

I use a Bumper Duo trailer, which attaches to the rear axle, so would not interfere with saddle bags. I've never needed saddle bags with this though as the trailer has a separate luggage area in the rear and there is also plenty of room within the actual trailer itself for me as I very rarely have more than one child in there.
