    Erm, that sounds like a hate campaign! Have you caught the 'visitors' on your cam?

      Rats wouldn't have been able to get the pump out of the pond though. It'll be those curious foxes... the other day I was admiring one as it trotted nonchalantly across my plot, had a sniff of my backpack I'd left on the path and then cocked it's leg and... yep.

        that sounds more like general cretinousness to me - is there a general waste bin on site? It's a fairly common trick to distribute rubbish over several bins rather than dump it in on, the idea being that a lot of people will be mildly annoyed, but it wont' be a sufficient issue to be worth the person complaining, or any authority being interested. My guess is that someone has a plot full of rubbish (not necessarily on your site) and is trying to surreptitiously dispose of it.

          Would this connector be the right thing to fix the cable?

            That's the sort I've used.

            just make sure you've threaded all the bits on the right ends before you've fiddled the cables inside abd done it up..

              Thanks Mike. Would it be the 2 or 3 pin one?

                if you have three core wire (live, neutral, earth), then you'll need a three pin. if you have two-core you only need a two-pin. but you could use a three-pin and have one connection blank, it's not good practice, but as there's only one cable of the same sort, it's probably ok. (just bear in mind you must never have thre core in and two core out or vice versa). if you do use three pin, don't forget to have the same pin unused on both ends...

                  Cheers, I'm guessing two core as it's just a low powered battery run thing.

                    almost certainly. If you look at the cut end, you'll be able to tell.
