Default Stolen garden lights...

I've recently tried to put in solar lights in our front garden beds
(they are quite cheap fortunately!)...the ones that you simply poke
into the ground. But soon after some of the lights were stolen, which
we actually got back as a kind neighbour found them in his front yard.
But over the weekend 5 entire lights were stolen, and this time I don't
think they are coming back. Anyone else had this problem, and more
importantly, does anyone have any ideas how to stop this?! Had ideas of
chaining them together underground, or perhaps trying to lay them in a
concrete block underground. Personally I'd probably wire up the metal
casing to the 240V supply, but my wife is stopping me.. Thanks for
any ideas.

I like your preference..BH...Wire them to 240v...That would get rid of
the Bast...d's ''...Mind ..you would have to find a place to put them too

Be ambitious giant concrete garden gnomes, might have to disguise the
faces though. Can't make it easy for the coppers to find missing tea
leaves can we?????
