They do advertise that there is something perhaps worth stealing though!

Much more likely that the scrotes already know what is there - seeing you drive in/out etc.

Thanks guys.

Will be giving them a call tomorrow as I think the man in charge would rather have something in the ground.

And yes Phil, I also think it does advertise stealable goods, but then again, they can't miss it either...

And when the garage becomes too small, you either move house or you find alternatives!!

I reckon this one is better than a steering wheel lock which can be broken in a matter of seconds...

no! I did look into selling them once and the post details came through with it.

get a disk, a post and a desent alarm and the b'stards will look down the road for something easier to nick.

Tell hubby to bring his wallet next wednesday too!

More than the post and lock!!

We have several cars to block.... and they might not be worth 100s of thousands, it would really p.... me off to see them go that way, especially if I can avoid it.
