Hmmm.... bush... cheney.... halliburton... :-)


There ya go.

If Saddam had got himself some great big Rotweilers, he'd still be the
boss.

I use a small cheap (#9) movement alarm that also operates when a pin
is pulled out. I use it on a holiday property and can be extended by
using fishing line to cover greater distances. It could be set at a
height well above animals and would be almost invisible. I cover 4
windows with mine using screw in eyelet hooks to go around corners
etc.

It could be positioned away from the tank but across the likely
approach path.

I like that idea (for all kinds of reasons) - thanks for the suggestion

Glad to be of help Matt, with a little imagination they can be very
versatile and almost invisible to the casual observer.
Sometimes we try to be too clever and to expensive.
I am currently working on a roman lock for a shed that will cost nothing and
be almost impossible to open (unless you know how)
It is so basic it will defeat most anyone.
