Interesting thread Steve. Thank you Dom

Sorry to hear that Nick hope everything turns out well. Thanks Dave, will it be the same date ? Dom

Think I might re-post that quote on the woodturning section :twisted: :) Dom

Can't answer your question, but remember to add the weight of all the new "friends" up there too. Dom

Hmmm, would your eldest son be in his early teens by any chance. Seem to recall discovering there was another gender on the planet when I was that age :) Dom
