just curious as to what is the most extreme security you can use to protect your equipment in the uk.

i've seen south africa's flame throwers and 10,000 volt fences but i doubt they are legal here.

it breaks my heart reading through the stolen equipment section.

I think legally you need to provide a nice safe environment for poor crims to break into possibly with rest room and tea making facilities. Woe betide should they injure themselves during the course of their work:mad1:

Alas, under UK law you have a duty of care to anyone who is on your property, whether invited or not. This is why you have to have a fence and/or cover on your open air swimming pool, even if you don't have kids.

 

If a child climbs your garden fence and falls in your pool, you are likely to be prosecuted, even if you weren't there at the time and the child had been told not to enter your garden.

 

It's poo, isn't it?

 

Mind you, can't see that many arborists having problems with swimming pools...

Did you know its actually an offense to leave an "unattended guard dog" if some one climbs over the fence into your yard and they get bitten your in bother.

 

God our country is crap!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
