Any landy owners are more than welcome over at Welcome to Landy Watch. Keeping an eye on your Land Rover

That could work, old phone hidden in car wired up to a car charger...

We have to try and make them things that people will actually do, and not thing that they cant be bothered unscrewing the gear lever etc etc. Im seriously considering digging a hole and attaching a ground anchor and filling it with concrete. I could then weld something onto the chassis, and padlock the car to the ground. The driveway alarm looks good, but as you say it could get annoying. Maybe it could be put inside the car so you know when someone gets in it, but then it would be nice to know someone is snooping around it before they get inside...

Mention LandyWatch to them, its totally free and when a vehicle goes missing, we all get an email. Details are posted on Facebook and Twitter too. A pack of ravaging dogs sounds good, but wolves would be better...

Hi Guys, I run a Stolen Land Rover Monitoring Website, called LandyWatch - www.landywatch.co.uk - and we are looking for different ideas for securing our vehicles. As you may know, the Land Rover Defender in particular is a very common vehicle to be stolen, due to the simplicity of the vehicle, its value, ease of stripping the vehicle down to parts for selling, and being shipped abroad. Currently, we are experiencing an epidemic in the Sheffield area, and we are aware of around 30 that have been stolen in the last few weeks. I was thinking that with us on here being technically minded and experienced in all sorts of different areas, we may be able to get some ideas from you guys of what we could possibly do to make our vehicles more secure. Currently we reccomend the Disklok for the steering wheel parked on full lock, pedal locks, roof markings, security etching etc. Is there any ideas you have for cheap and simple security systems, that you may have used, or ideas you may have on how we could make our vehicles more secure. Ways to alert the owner if their is someone poking around the vehicle Methods to scare them off Stuff like that. Anything you can think of would be a great help.

I really fancied a REKE blue laser light, looked great. Was gonna buy all 3 and whack them on eBay...

£135 REKE blue laser light for £1, but by the time it had opened up the page to add to cart, they had gone...

Is there any way we can see what is in the sale from work? Dont have steam installed on my laptop unfortunately...

Damn, I thought it looked amazing, so im glad I didnt pay £34.99 for it!!! Lets see what is on offer today!!!

So far Ive bought, Test Drive Unlimited - £3 LA Noire - £15 Cities XL 2012 - £15 I just know that I am going to be buying more games than I can ever play this month...

Think there is create a forum.com which is free, but if you want good functionality, get yourself a hosting account with hostandgo.co.uk and you can then do what you want, add what you want and install what you want onto the server...

There are a few sites that let you run free forums but I cant really work out what your trying to accomplish. I pay for the hosting and host the forum myself. That way there are no adverts etc...

I saw that, looks really cool, although I dont use twitter. Maybe they will do a facebook one?

# But it is ethical to let the population get so out of control that everyone dies?

There will come a time when the human population will be forcibly reduced, due to lack of oil, food, water etc. Probably in our lifetime, if not in our childrens lifetime. The energy problem is the one that will hit first. Other technologies are not good enough to support our demand for energy. When it runs out, it will be a bad day on planet earth. Is meat not a concentrated form of the energy from plants? If it is, then we would need to eat a lot more plants than would be available in certain parts of the world. In countries like Africa, where people are starving because of lack of food, we ship in rice from other countries. Surely if the land cannot support the people living there, then the people living there should stop creating more people. Would you still be saying the same thing about the human population when there are 10, 20, 30 billion people on the planet?
