    Hi,
    That should be better than two Jack Russells in a tread mill.
    Regards

    I'm thinking it'd be nice to have the missus doing the treadmill.

    Kids used to play outside after breakfast,I guess this could be a new approach and an opportunity to ante up some pocket money?

    Cheers

    I think you have all missed the point: That was Dad's effort to keep Mum and Bub out of mischief and from under his feet.

    As the kids get into their teens telling Mum that
    they are "going out to a turn" will have a different meaning.

    lolol, I'm thinking that you had better keep your way of thinking away from your wife. Otherwise, she may be going to be giving your way of thinking a little tuning up. Your way of thinking, is just the latest way to get hurt while turning, and I don't mean the lathe will be doing the hurting.
