2 things happened to me today ....
1. I GOT PROMOTED!
2. A really spooky thing happened this evening. For the past few days I've been manually locking the car as I need a new battery/fob for my remote locking/alarm.
I walked to the kinkmobile in the car park at work. When I was about 2 foot away it acted as if I had used the remote to unlock it - indicators came on, doors unlocked, and then the alarm went off.
I immediately thought that someone was playing a prank on me (somehow) - but it was late and I was the last in the car park!
It had not been going off all day - otherwise our security guys would have come and told me (they have a formal policy to do so, and check the cark park every 15 mins all day and night long).
I then thought .... bugger - the immobiliser might have kicked in and now I've got to get a train home.
Got into car - started up ok and drove home ok. I was dreading the whole way home that the alarm would go off again and maybe immobiliser kick in !
But no probs at all. When I got home I checked to see if the remote fob was where I had hidden it - and sure enough - still there !
Really really spooky.
I assume I was all 'charged' up with static, etc. Odd that it set off when I was about 2 foot away.
K.
P.S. - Did I mention I got promoted today?
