The internal sounder for our new burglar alarm has developed a fault. Gladly, this doesn’t mean that household chores are soundtracked with an intolerably continual siren; rather a crackly noise every 4 or 5 seconds. It’s not really audible through most of the house, as the sounder is in the kitchen. What it actually means is that if I go downstairs to get some water from the fridge in the middle of the night, it sounds as if Darth Vader is looking over my shoulder. There’s something very disconcerting about the sound of an iron lung in the still of the night.
