Its a simple question.....maybe to complicated for you to understand?

Unless you're on a subscription with back up, utterly poiontless . . . .same as car alarms. No one takes any notice. I had a neighbour with one once, would not shut up. We were outside at 2 am smacking shit out of it with gold clubs.

Police eventually turned up, nothing they could do but did ask us to be careful to not damage the house.

Our friends in Sweden have a Verisure system, they think it’s fantastic.

We’ve found Banham’s locks and monitored/reporting alarms pretty good.

I set Blur's 'Parklife' as my home alarm, and it goes off every bloody single day of the week....
......except for Wednesdays, when I’m rudely awakened by the dustman.

We have a trained killer too. Edit, 2 trained killers since June when we inherited 12 year old Rosie, ferocity personified.
