Warning to trades

[SLIPSHOD & SLAPDASH]

our cctv outdoor security alarms went off last night .......... bleeding cat!! :^O :coat

I thought the whole point of a CCTV system was to start when an activation happens. Your lucky that when 'they went off' it was only a cat and not a burglar.

How did you know it was a cat, and how did you know it was bleeding if the system wasn't on ?

I never keep any tools of any value unattended in my van.

Its just not worth the hassle, for the sake of a few mins to unload.

Either that, or buy a proper van vault.

when I was a lot younger I slept on a board on top of everything in the back of the van.

his tools dont have any value, so are kept in the van?

My experience with Wal-Mart in the US was that they always had security patrols around their car-parks (parking lahts) - 24 hours a day. Would it be beyond the wit of hoteliers to have someone patrolling? Especially as it seems to be such a common occurrance.

You only need one person to deter the theives.

i knew it was a cat as i was in the control room where all our equipment and computers etc are located, there is a monitor opposite my pc on the filling cabinet which i can watch while using the computer, there are pirs linked to the buzzer on the dvr and that buzzer started sounding the alarm which meant i looked at the screen and saw the cat walking round the outside secondly the alarms dont trigger the recording they are only there for audible alert the dvr recorder is constantly recording 24hrs 7 days a week
