very cool!

may be Robodog soon , at least the little sh1t may be programed to listen to you

 very clever!

Hmmm

Defence mechanism would be - a bolas (think that's the name - like South American cowboys use). Basically a string with balls on the end. Fling at the legs of the beastie - centrigual force of the balls wraps string around the legs - beastie falls over. Chase over.

I know the bolas unfortunately for me I don't own one or know how to throw on , guess your thinking indicates you still have a fallout going on with your boy Lynda , absolutely love the way you are thinking   

I don't have a bolas either Dave, but I might consider getting some if there is any sign of spindly legged robots coming after me!

(btw they wouldn't work on my son, he's far too chunky, and it's his mouth that's the problem)

That's an easy fix then Lynda with some gaffa tape

I want one to do my housework   looks like it would do it far quicker than I ever could  

Could just tie take it down the local playing fields , programme it to do 10 laps and tie the dogs on the back ................ job done

Very very cool, do you think it could walk my mum too she's got lots of boundless energy
