furious

Went back to the garage this weekend to find the lock split in two and the door open slightly. With the 'Ro and and fair amount of tools tucked away I was expecting the worst.....but to my relief the kn*b jockies had only stolen a mini-moto that had seen too many wheelies and high-sides, with half the engine stripped. Thankfully the only damage the 'ro suffered was a sprinkling of oily gold fingerprint dust when the BIB came to investigate.

Full points to the police for being round within a couple of hours. smile

Cue hammers chisels and medieval ironwork fortifications....

Not having looked properly, I was going to ask 'is that swords or mines'. Having looked a bit more closely, I assume that it's the latter. Sincerely hope that they're designed to maim permanantly and painfully rarther than outright kill! L.o.l.

No, claymores will outright kill. Very effective in that.

I would be worried about collateral damage to my garage.

Surely a few step up transformers hooked up to the car (say 1000V), with the car on rubber mats would be more efficent, and less "messy"

The price of justice biggrin

Although claymores are reasonably directional from what I remember....

For now, a lesson in homeland security and some vault like security measures. And a local eyeout for the scumbags as they have to have lived nearby to spot it in the first place....

That they are indeed with minimal damage in the other direction, which is why you can normally find nice big text saying "this side faces the enemy" and the likes on them, the funniest of which is one I saw several years ago which had an arrow on top pointing to one side and "Dead People This Way" written beside it smile
