Stick a camera on your drive that is PIR activated, and just let people know you have had a new gaurd fitted, you might get a mug shot of the 2nd attempt, even though you havnt replaced the sump guard.  :) :y

Also you can get a little alarm that you could fit in the garden (hidden) they are wireless, then a unit plugs in to a socket it the house, you then get a chime or a bing bong noise if someone passes the beam.

My mate has one, when he is working in the shed and his wife comes onto the drive he goes in and puts the kettle on to make her a drink.

She thinks he's wonderfull for being so thoughtfull, he is just smart, allwys works in his favour.  if she's snappy with him.  He turns it off and she makes the tea....she doesnt stay snappy for long.  ;D ;D

Was it noticed before or after the water pump being changed? Easy to take them off but a pain to put back on when working on the floor on your own! Just a thought!  :-?
