I would have loved to see you explain that one! LOL

My partner got home last night from work and took great delight in pointing out the large battery and inverter he bought for the camper to run my lap top would have quite easily run my sewing maching AND iron. *sigh*

And funnily enough beachlady, I have my eye out for a treadle machine, purely because I like old stuff (like my partner! lol) They're quite expensive here, being antiques, and I'm not sure I'd cope with the speed (or lack of! )
