Yard at home?

But it's not 'only' security; security is a huge and growing factor. An arb I know lived away from his yards for many years but after being turned over one time too many sought a house with adjacent yard.

As for leaving work at work - that's where the personal choice and discipline come into it.

 

Security for me is a major issue, in the last year alone we have had major kit and fuel stolen on site on 4 occasions, I am happier when kit is in the yard, but that hasn't stopped people trying to take it.

Don't get me wrong I wouldn't swap what I have but yes you do have to be disciplined which I am not, I find I never switch off and find myself wandering into the workshop to sort jobs out when I should be indoors with my feet up :)

and then there's the "what was that noise" syndrome

I have had a couple of places with yards and a few without, and I was always more relaxed at the ones without, if that makes sense ?

We've just got broken into over the weekend- second time in 3 years. Nothing major- just smashed locks and stolen batteries out of the chippers. Out bandit is running like a bag of poo today- not sure if they have been tampering with it. Will fine out by the end of the day.

 

Will have to have a serious think about moving the yard home now.
