Stormy weather and RRS... :((

It's blowing a hurricane (well not quite, only 85mph gusts on my windmeter ) here and I have just had to go and turn the Sport round to face into the wind rather than sit across it - it was being buffeted so hard in the gusts that it was rocking on the suspension (which is in access mode!) and setting off the alarm!
I didn't hear the alarm inside the house, one of my neighbours was passing and called in to tell me it was sounding and the lights flashing! The defender is also on the drive and it is rock steady! 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Have you not done the alarm sounder 'adjustment' Tim?
If you unplug the sounder the alarm defaults to the horn, much louder.

You been smoking sumfinck illegal or what Jay - double chines are what speedboats have to make them plane easily! It's unhappy because the weather up here is taking slates off roofs and blowing down trees and I don't want either to land on my Sport tyvm................ the wind has switched from South West storm force to North Storm force so I expect we will be under feet of snow by the morning - the Scottish ski resorts are all forecasting to be open with complete runs this weekend! 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

It's worth doing, most people never even hear the alarm sounder but the horn is a lot louder.
Simple adjustment.
