Just had my moped stolen from our back garden during the night :( Little 
Honda SA50 - G820 VJM - that could just about touch 30mph ;)

On the plus side, its finally motivated me into buying a CCTV system!

The first thing the Police ask you these days is, do you have CCTV 
evidence?!?! Seems totally crazy as the law is quite strict on 
surveillance and how many people have CCTV??

Anyway, I've just bought a wireless 6 ( count them! ) CCTV system off 
ebay for 160 quid which seemed a bargain. Now just need to record the 
images! :) You can pick up CCTV DVR's but although they are far better 
than VCR's ... they can still be trashed or nicked! ;) I would much 
prefer offsite recording and had been thinking about tieing it into my 
home PVR.

When I'm not at home using the PVR, it turns into CCTV mode and records 
video off to a secure website :)

Anyway, if anyone see's or knows any info about my clapped out moped 
than please drop me or the Police a line :)

Cheers,
