    разводить турусы < на колёсах>
    разг., ирон.
    1) (говорить чепуху, вздор, небылицы) talk nonsense; talk through one's hat; spin a yarn

    [Никитич] и сам иногда подумает о себе: складно выходит... Такие турусы разведёт, что тебе поп раньше. (В. Шукшин, Охота жить) — And sometimes he would think to himself, darn me, what a speaker I am. He could spin a yarn as good as any priest in the old days.

    2) (вести пустые разговоры, тратить время на болтовню) spend one's time in idle chatter (talk); cackle

    - Нет, ты не торопись; милый человек. Послушай, кто я, что я, зачем пришёл к тебе. Давай присядем... Канатчиков собрался закричать на старика, "некогда, мол, мне турусы на колёсах с тобой разводить", но... покорно опустился в своё кресло. (Г. Марков, Грядущему веку) — 'Don't be hasty, my dear man. First listen to who I am, what I am, and why I came to you. Let's sit down.' Kanatchikov was about to shout that he had no time to spend in idle chatter, but... obediently sat down in his chair.

    - В рыбацком деле смелость нужна. И риска тут бояться нечего. Ежели лёд раскололся и река пошла, тут брат, нечего турусы разводить и народ расхолаживать. (В. Закруткин, Плавучая станица) — 'A fisherman's job requires grit. You've got to take risks. When the ice has broken up and started moving it's no time for cackling and throwing a wet blanket on people.'
