Brilliant news!

You guys may be interested in the thoughts of a mate of mine, he is old bill ,but has a couple of great cars (you gotta respect guy going to Le Mans in an old funeral directors limo!), where tea leaves have broken into houses, nicked keys, 'chucked' them into nearby bushes to conceal them, but no evidence when stopped and searched. They them turn up a day or 2 later, retreive the keys if they are still around, then drive the car away. To them, if the keys are not there, never mind, go and do another house.

Personally I would like to cut their hands and balls off, they cant grab keys or produce any more little gits. No anesthetic either.

Has your mate got any anti=theft "top tips"? this story has been a bit of a wake up call for me to the point of paranoia. Short of a doberman what could we be doing to minimise all this? Anyone got any great ideas? obviously a public forum is not the place to reveal individual solutions that could compromise security but general stuff would be useful

Absolutely.

I think i'd be inclined to leave the balls on but cut the hands off. That way, when the balls need an itch, they'd have nothing to itch them with.

He has some good stuff, happy to share what I can, but as you say, not in public. Happy to speak with anyone on this, just pm for phone details.
