It's for prisoners who are a little boisterous and rowdy and could break their arms when they jump around. <br /><br />That would solve your problem, I suspect.

this reminds me of ...hi blighty,<br /><br />gotta love boys.<br /><br />this reminds me of the time husband and i went out to dinner (rare) and left the boys home alone (even rarer.) they took turns jumping from the stairs onto the sofa, this required a 4-5 ft soar through the air. 2 weeks later i sat on said sofa with a cup of tea and sofa fell off it's feet. looked underneath and saw wooden blocks crudely nailed in place of feet. hmmmm. my first thought was - boy are these kids clever!<br /><br />~janetthe gardener's cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16447809353998632722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5419860268577817026.post-83244778107997049232010-07-02T14:25:08.222+01:002010-07-02T14:25:08.222+01:00Lol...
