The lodger has left.

I stuck a cheap camera in the computer room and connected it to the VCR in
my bedroom. After recording her in the computer room going through all the
desk drawers and paper files I then moved the camera to my bedroom and
recorded her looking through all drawers, cupboards and wardrobes.

I gave her 3 hours notice to leave. The bond I have will cover cost of the
change of door locks.

Well done! I first read "moved the camera to her bedroom". I'm
becoming an old pervert :-). Might have been fun though!!

I wonder what she was looking for...did you ask her?

ISTR there was a case like that a few back. Where the Landlord decided to
monitor the tenants bedroom activities with a CCTV camera.

I think the whole matter came to court and the Judge (obviously) deemed
that the tenants had not recieved 'the quite enjoyment of the flat'. The
pervy Landlord was ordered to pay a large sum to the tenants in
compensation. IIRC comparable with the rent received during the tenancy.
