My house alarm has a facility on it whereby you can record short voice memos. I installed it some years ago and messed around with with it but never bothered to pay much attention to it until I got this mail from Murray* yesterday, who rents my house, here it is in full:
V,
Round about 5pm I went out to the shop briefly. When I came back I began to notice "bleep bleep**" about every 10 seconds. I believe this comes from the alarm system?
How to turn the bleep-bleep off? Urgently, as I shall be hearing it all night.
I noticed no sign of entry or anything taken. However on the alarm system when I played the message button, there was a thirties(?) voice saying "You big fat arsehole..." then cut off. I think there was traffic sound in the background. Does that mean this message was indeed new, and was left by someone who rang the bell but got no answer because I was out. Or does it mean that alarmlingly he already came inside?
Regards,
Murray
**The bleeping turned out to be the battery on the phone dying.
