No advice to offer, but I feel your pain on the burglary. I got done four times in Spain in the space of a year.
I've now moved to a town with a zero crime rate.

My garage got done over for the second time last night. They must have been disturbed as they only got my strimmer and a couple of little things.
I'm thinking the little darlings may come back for the bikes and my lawn mower soon and I'd like to have something nice waiting for them Anyone have any ideas?
Also, I'm just renting this house so I don't want to spend a fortune but my dad mentioned some alarm systems you can get just for your garage, does anyone use any particular garage alarm they could recommend before I go shopping for one this evening?
Cheers gang.

Replace the driveway and perimeter floodlamps with motion sensor floodlamps.

Good grief, all this over a kettle....
We got a Cuisinart stainless steel leccy kettle for $60 from Bed Bath & Beyond (and you can get then from Sears too) which sounds like a lot of dosh but its a good solid bit of kit that'll last for a while.
If you're feeling cheap Wal-Marts do a GE leccy kettle for $15 - but be prepared to wait 20 mins for it to boil....

get a gun.
If anyone steps foot on your land, shoot the bastard right in the knackers, he'll wish he'd just not bothered, while he lives out his unworthy existence unable to even pull his own plonker.
Plus you will be doing the world a valuable favor in ridding the gene pool of this twat
can anyone tell that I don't like burglars?
In some (if not all states) its perfectly legal to defend yourself with a gun if someone is on your land...and if they are unarmed, you can still claim that you thought they were.
Give the bastard a little lead souvenir.

unless they are threatening you directly with physical harm you cannot claim self defense
a little crazy I know, but that's how it is.

LOL We don't need a kettle 
We love our clear boil kettle which boils pretty quickly and was a wedding present. We didn't want to spend $30-$60 on a US electric kettle that looks like ones the UK had 10 years ago.
