    I have always lived in Cloud Cuckoo Land and that State of Mind doesn't issue passports. My house, however, is in Cropwell Bishop, a small village in South Nottinghamshire.

    Rob Have you thought about setting soft limits up and set them to just before the home switch then you could not jog past the switch.
    The only problem with that is you have to remember to turn them on with Mach3 after you have homed.

    I am happy with the way I do it, but when I have the intellectual wherewithal, I will investigate your suggestion, but for now I have to get cutting, I have to make a harmonica case for my teachers' 70th Birthday present, I have 3 weeks to do it !!
