so when we are together we'd have to make up a team name???

"the YB team"?

well anyway the plot thickens....

Sitting in lounge reading tonight when i hear the letter box flap go... it was about 9pm so certainly wasnt the postie!!! Side stepped round wall into hall to see a hand reaching through letter box to try and get key in door (its in door during day, on bedside cabinet at night). i ran to door and slammed the flap on the persons hand who quickly withdrew hand and ran off from door (could see a couple of people through frosted glass).

So obviously they still want to get in bad!!! So ive got to do even more to protect property now!!

So first step is to make sure they cant get to keys in future!!! I want to be able to leave key in door during day as its convienient place to leave it when you have visitors coming and going and its a bit fucking brazen of the cunts to try and get in when they know someones in the house!! (TV was on).

So my patented "spike shield" defence system needed a new componant adding to it, a spiked protection plate to shield key!!

First i got my plastic sheet i have lieing around and made a strengthened and supported frame for the spikes:


Then it was spiked with spikes attached using foam baselayer for flexibility so spikes wont come off if brushed against, and VHB tape and super glue to fix each drawing pin!!


It was then secured to door with super high strength 3M VHB tape i had specially ordered a while back!! Ive tried ripping it off and it wont come off in my trials and the stiffening plates mean it cant be bent back flat!!


Im thinking of expanding the spike shield on my wall. This is how it is at present with 3 layers of spikes, laid in groups of 5 in a "x" configuration per brick.


Im thinking of increasing the density of spikes to say 9 spikes per brick in a simple 3 rows of 3 spikes configuration. Im thinking that will add a bit more protection. Someone also suggested some grease painted on it with a bit of dye/paint added so that when they come and have a look, they will then ruin thier Kappa/benq/superdry shell suits/hoodies and that will deter them a bit next time!!

From looking at my house on the outside i dont think its too conspicious and i dont think i can do much more from front:


You can see the CHAV house up street and dereliction problem in the area in this shot:

Im thinking maybe pouring petrol through thier letter box and a box of matches should scare them into submission! NOT torching it obviously, just petrol as a warning!!

Not sure what more i can do out back:

I'm thinking maybe fitting an extension pole to the pole out back and a CCTV camera but i reckon it would attract more attention than problems it would solve. Any more sensible/achievable ideas???
