Barbed wire is excellent. Electrified cattle fencing would be ideal, but the pulsed square-wave noise from the transformer will come through the telly unless you install a healthy number of ferrite bead chokes close to the power supply, and another set where the coax for the telly enters the house.

Also sounds like a motion sensor connected to flood lights with loudspeaker and recording of growling, barking dog with warning sign (DANGER - Guard Dog On Premises) would be a welcome addition. Cheaper than feeding two Dobermans...

I feel the mood shifting a little, but until recently putting barbed wire or broken glass around your fence actually runs a risk of getting you prosecuted if some scumbag hurts himself on it. Stupid stupid stupid namby pamby political correctness.

However, some nice bushes planted by the fence can guarantee the scumbag a memorable landing.

Pyracantha is both pretty and fragrant, your visitor is sure to take some home with him. Plant with roses, for an interesting mix of straight needles and thick curved thorns.

We can put a fence up in France, metal gates at downing street, spend millions on border controls, get half the army and police protecting our elected leaders, but WE the plebs can not do anything to protect ourselves from criminals?
