OK, so yes, I could buy an expensive alarm, but I have no money. So thinking of setting up a few DIY alarms about the house that can be turned on and off easily.
One idea (maybe too crazy) is to set up trip wires (not to hurt) that pull over bottles - just to make a lot of noise. Just for the side passage though, where nobody should be going.
Another, pressure pad alarms - I have some artificial grass outside the patio doors, so could put in a pressure pad alarm like this there (I have an out door electric socket so could keep it wired up) although not sure that is safe for outdoor use.
Or maybe i should just get a proper alarm? Need CCTV too. Still haven't decided what to get, probably asked here almost 2 years ago now!
