    may I ask why you go through the extra effort of placing an apostrophe in the word "cameras"?

      Well 25% of all the CCTV cameras in the world are in the UK so naturally crime rates are tumbling here due to their well known and indisputable deterent value.

      Oh, I see what you mean.

        The camera does work and I use it for my own protection when threatened with violence on a job. Threatening people calm down significantly when told that every move is being beamed from me to the locked boot of the car - and which car they do not know.

          Can I just point out that I've managed to contribute to a thread without the whole thread tumbling into chaos and innuendo!!!

              Thank you. I only wondered because you made the decision between using and not using the apostrophe in your sentence.

              "...back up the camera's. Its no use..."

              You're nearly there. Just swap the rules.

                    When I do PI work yes definately - not when on a normal contract though. In case you haven't grasped it or read it elsewhere I am also a Professional Investigator so get involved in other things not so boring.
