I would have thought an RAF base would be pretty secure. CCTV? Guarded entrance gates?

You would have thought so eh!! Unfortunately the garage is outside 'the wire'! They didn't manage to catch anything on the cctv. There are a load of contractors with big white vans around the place all the time that park up next to the garages so likely one watched me put my bike away.
