Many people wear any color nowadays, especially to a funeral of someone so young. It is quite often called a celebration of life now.

My system is 4 years old now so has possibly been replaced by a newer system, it is a Bosch. The link to the installers are.... http://www.lockdownsecurity.net.au/ They also now do camera's but I bought mine from JB hifi. Mine is the DCS-932L I think it was about $190. http://www.dlink.com.au/products/category/?cid=86

It is Bosch system, I had it installed 4 years ago by a company in Mandurah, Lockdown Security. It is hooked into the phone line and if goes off will call my mobile or husbands if I don't answer, I can also turn the alarm off using my mobile. As it rings my mobile it is classed as a monitored alarm so reduces my insurance premiums, you can use a monitoring company but you pay for them making a call instead of you. There are many different sytems available and the cost depends on how many motion sensors you have and which sort of sensors. I have a mix of battery operated ones, due to having an upstairs and not being able to run cables through the roof space and some hard wired ones. I can set the alarm so the whole house is armed except for my bedroom, great for being alone at night. The camera is a Dlink wireless camera, it is logged into my wireless modem, I just go to the Dlink website, (after setting up an account, which is free) I log in and watch what is happening at home, Great if you have left children home alone, :wink:. You can add as many cameras as you like to the system, all you need is a power point near by to plug the camera into, it uses a micro sd card to record onto and can be set to record on motion or record 24/7. I have bought one to try out but am going to install more as I am very happy with the result, the picture is very clear and it has an auto night mode function. Mine is hidden in the room so isn't clearly visible incase someone does get inside. If you type in Perth WA Crime Report into the Facebook search box the page will come up. People post what crimes are happening to them, friends and family, and any suspicious behaviour in their area, gives you a heads up on what to look out for. Not sure if there's pages for other states.

I have wood in my window and door tracks, always have for 30+ years, they just smash the glass, quicker and easier than removing a flyscreen and jiggling the window open. I think the shatter proof film on the glass would help. Ceilings are only plaster board so anyone can put their foot through any part of it without having to open the loft hatch. ALWAYS buy new tooth brushes if you ever get broken into, :wink: hahaha

It is everywhere, it just doesn't make the news, and sometimes goes unreported. Take a look at 'Perth WA crime report', a Facebook page reporting whats going on in the area's of Perth, it's frightening what is happening everywhere daily and nightly. So many people asleep in their beds at night and getting robbed while they sleep.

I have an alarm system, installed after our first break in 4 years ago. Got broken into again last October and the alarm went off and the offenders ran without gaining entry, they smashed a window. The alram rings my mobile if it goes off, and if I don't answer it rings my husbands mobile, we rang the cops straight away and they were here before we even got home. Since the second break in I have installed a security camera I can access via the internet from anywhere in the world, it also records so if someone does happen to get in they will be recorded and this can be given to the cops who may be able to identify them, if not then maybe sometime in the future. Also having the monitored alarm system it has reduced my insurance premiums.

I wouldn't think there was much in Mandurah to offer the rest of the state. ie. no fabrication yards, warehouses etc. so what would need to be transported from Mandurah?? you may have to rethink your starting base.

Wonder if the banks will pass on the cut, will have to wait and see,

I don't find it sad at all. What I find sad is when someone isn't able to use and apply the tools available to them to help them live and maintain a healthy lifestyle. Everyone is different and we all need different means and ways to successfully loose weight and maintain a healthy lifestyle. WHATEVER works for any individual is a good thing. I use the website and phone app, it has worked for me, I am fitter and am carrying less weight now than I was 10 years ago. Fitter in my fifities than my fourties. We can't all be perfect. :wink:

It can also calculate your daily intake of salt, fibre, saturated fat, protein, carbs, etc just by adding the food you eat. Takes the hard work out of keeping an eye on what your stuffing in your gob. My doctor told me about the website quite some time ago, it's great for anyone wanting to keep a check on their diet and exercise.

It's free for Androids too. I like being able to scan the barcode of a product to quickly add to the diary.

http://www.myfitnesspal.com keeps me in check, without checking my calorie intake I would blow out.

It's only been 4 days. You need to give the agency time to contact the owners and organise rectifying the problems you have. It is usually left to the ingoing tenant to amend the property condition report, (smart move by the Agents as many tenants don't bother, so can and will get slugged for any cleaning or repairs that need to be carried out when they vacate). You husband will need to do this and have it signed and dated by the Agents then a copy given back to yourselves with all the changes made to it. You then have a leg to stand on when you vacate. Also take DATED pictures of any damage or dirt.

The starting age for compulsory education changes in WA next year. Next year 2013, Pre-primary will become compulsory education.

The vents could well be for ventilation if there is a gas bayonet at the property, these are required.
