Alarms are meant to ring for only 20 minutes before going silent (with a flashing light tell-tale if one's fitted). If there is something which continually sets off the alarm (i.e. an animal setting off the infra-red, or even - and I've known this happen - a helium filled balloon moving around through convection currents) the alarm may re-start - but it should not be continuous.

With the recent break ins around the area, I am sure the people who's alarm it is must be super chuffed about you drawing attention to their house on a public forum.


Whilst it may have been an attempt to be kind and let them know there is a problem, I hope you haven't made the problem worse by putting their address in the title of the thread.

    • Thank you @pugwash. I’ll check that out. 
    • We've lost our beautiful indoor cat who darted out of a window when we weren't looking. We are very worried about him in this extreme heat and with a thick fur coat. He is a big Siberian Forest cat with no street awareness, so please please share and please let us know if you see him. Thank you!
    • Yes, I have. We have gone fruit (seed/nut and mushroom) foraging in and out of London. I'll just recommend a couple of places I've found most rewarding. Wormwood Scrubs: you'll find blackberries, plums, sloes and apple trees. Holmewood (train journey, then either bike ride/cab to the top of the hill or a very long walk): bilberries galore! Be prepared to spend a few hours picking. It's a lovely area to explore and I am sure there are other wild fruits (I've only been twice due to the distance).
    • Had a green woodpecker visit our back garden this morning. Appeared to be eating ants or ant larvae.
