Re: Sssh!! Whats that noise?

Just grab a heavy blunt instrument then slowly and quietly creep down the stairs, when you get to the door stop for a minute or two then let out a fierce yell "Geronimo!" and charge in holding blunt instrument shoulder high, never fails to scare off thieves, so the wife tells me.

Re: Sssh!! Whats that noise?

First of all cover your naked body in petroleum jelly (keep a tub handy *cough*) then go downstairs and beat the living daylights out of whoever might be there, preferably with something like a bat but make sure it has a sticky handle covering. The jelly will stop the intruder (s) from being able to hold onto you. Learned this approach after watching 'Charles Bronson - most violent prisoner in Britain'.

Bronson (2008)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1172570/

This clip has lots of swearing, nakedness - aggression!

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!



Good film by the way .

Re: Sssh!! Whats that noise?

As a woman, I find any noise anywhere in the house, pretty scary.

Fortunately I have 2 cats (who usually alert me when odd noises occur) and a bedroom door which I lock.

I also have a landline plus cordless phones, so, in theory, if I could get my act together, I could possibly ring the police.

PLUS ... my next door neighbour is a Policeman ... and he is TALL and HUNKY and looks very fit

Well, in that case Rachel, you could always invent a suspicious noise, lol

“I also have a landline plus cordless phones,” Quote Rachel.

I thought that read “I also have a landmine” and I says to meself, that’s the girl, what a splendid idea.

Are you certain he's an actual police officer, and not a bachelorette party male stripper?



My home is the one place in the entire world where my wife and kids are always safe and protected.

So, if someone is foolish enough to come into my home, I'm coming straight at them.

Re: Sssh!! Whats that noise?

Well the 'quote' thingie isn't working ...

YES he is a Police person of some kind.

His wife is a genuinely lovely person


Oooo Jem ... a landmine might be an alternative solution.

I do have a book about the SAS which tells me how to boobytrap my front path

I agree with you Salty, a man's duty is to protect his family and home at all costs, well it used to be.
