bad luck mate,

we've had a mini crime wave since clocks went back though
reducing now its too cold to hang around, the yoofs that is.

fences, caravans, cars, patio doors eith trashed broken into
or damaged, old folks intimidated.

what i did was carded all my neighbours, saying hi to those
i didnt know. if every one is aware, wont right off their suffering
as quick, then bombard local plod. and if few take it into their own
hands well, saves rest of a job...

best thing is now i've worked out one of our plonkers lives round
corner, nice house, 4x4, caravan etc. think would know better but
most of it is boredom driven. rest assured on borrowed time. will
make sure he hurts himself next time. axle grease, anti vandal
spikes etc.

If they bring the goat with them again forget the police phone defra, it could lead to a nasty foot and mouth outbreak :

this helps deter yobs and vandals and perfectly legal with a warning sign every 50 meters, and you only need this if it borders a public footpath!

and even works for Goats :

they do electric nets for keeping poutry in, but i suspect anyone who steals turkeys probably has a bit of livestock experience and the electric fencing wouldn't stop them as if you are experienced with it is possible to get round it one way or another.

Yes they can Plank but i wired it up to the door handle :wink:

I had a lot of noise yesterday early hours
turkeys all kicked off too a load of racket
I shot out of bed with an air riffle but when I got there they had gone turkeys safe :smile: : The thing is I would be in the wrong in the eyes of the law :roll: :cry:
It is just a mad mad world.

Still got my turkeys but a few in the area have had theres taken.
:cry: :cry: Hard work money down the pan :evil:

it sounds o ver the top but I once rigged up a simple alarm, a clothes peg with drawing pins pushed in the face and a pice of cut off plastic botttle to keep them apart, then a fishing line trip wire to yank the plastic out.

Attatched to a blue domestic alarm box strobe and 120 db siren!

it all runs off a 12v battery and can be put virtually anywhere, would this idea help? if only to alert you to the intruders.

of course the trip wire needs to above the height where wild life will set it off, but then again if it is a fox coming them maybe the low wire is no bad thing :wink:
