A lot of houses I know with amoured security doors that have been robbed, ended up being burgled with the rubbers breaking the walls beside the doors with a cheap sledge hammer, or simply driving in behind the home owner.

All this security is just to discourage those ones looking for soft target.

Just thinking out loud shaa...

You are absolutely correct!
Except you are armed with some Pump-Action and unlimited armo ANYONE can be robbed in their home by a determined and seasoned group of Armed Robbers.

You actually can categorise Robbers into three groups:
1.) The seasoned ones, usually hired Killers/Assassins: These ones are not here to steal your personal effects (and since your home is not a bank vault), they have just come to kill you, at home (for effects, as they could do it elsewhere!). Walls and Gates and all that shyte is ineffective against them. they would shoot your Dogs if they make as much as a whimper. Bullets is not scarce with these types and they come prepared (generator, iron cutter and all the tools).
Your only chance is if you are well-armed too but these types of robbers are not common because they go for specific jobs and the pay-out is not small change.

2.) The organised Armed robbers looking to make big money: These ones are looking for pay-dirt, jewelries, cash kept at home, even luxury vehicles. They usually act on information that you have "something valuable at home", most likely from some lose-tongue associate (Cooks, Cleaners, Gate-man, business colleagues,friends and family members).
They watch and survey your movements for sometime before trying to gain entry. Most would tail you and follow you as you drive-in or drive-out. Some would follow your guests/children to gain "easy access" or just put a gun to your head and ask you to lead them in.
They dont have unlimited armo so they dont/cant waste bullets. When they muster enough fire power, they would rather rob a bank/bullion van, than rob an individual home but we also know that some homes are 'richer' than a bank's vault!

Whether you have a high fence or short one makes no difference for them to gain entrance BUT a see-through one could assist you to raise alarm as people can observe what is going-on inside and may notice "unusual activity" thus leading to raising an alarm.
because they are 'short' on armo, they dont want a prolonged shoot-out (if police or armed-help eventually comes .....I said "armed help" because you cannot always rely on the Police to arrive on-time but in some areas, almost everyone owns at least one gun and Home owners have a coded distress-call which makes everyone to "shoot at anything that is unknown but moving"! Its a sort of community alert).
So, see-through fence has it advantages over high -fence (with the disadvantage of "lack of complete privacy). but very determined thieves of the first category are not bothered with your high fence.

3.) The 'local Robbers': These are usually 'cult groups" within that area. Boys who band together to do 'jobs' because they need money. They are opportunistic in nature. they just look for the 'weakest house' (security-wise), that can provide the highest 'reward' for their effort.
usually, they dont have more than a few/five bullets and two guns at most. These are the types that scale your fence to rob you!
These types are afraid of a fierce Dog or group of Dogs.
if your fence is too high or is electrified, these types will just avoid you and go to the next house
These types dont ever try rob certain neighbourhoods because they know they will likely not come out alive.
But they are the most prevalent because they dont need much effort to get away with it.

All-in-all, your "security" has to be viewed from the point of 'the sort of threat' you face or are likely to face.
In some areas/situation, Dogs would help raise the alarm when yo are not aware (maybe sleeping), if the robbers have not shot them or poisoned them first.
In some areas/situation, High, electrified fence and Dogs would deter most of the threats you could face but not all.
See-through fence is good in high-density areas and it contributes to "collective security" though the lack of privacy is a draw-back but in such places, that is the least of your worry.

One thing l think everyone should have, irrespective of the kind of threat you may face, is a CCTV system, a robust one...... not the package ones that are common in our environment.
Good & Sturdy Cameras, Remote monitoring, Remote alarm, Remote storage, PIRS, Motion detectors, e.t.c

The thing is when the Robbery is done and concluded, you should be sure that the perpetrators would be caught and dealt with, by the law courts or through personal vengeance.... when you have the video evidence.
I hate it when they get away, scott-free! That really annoys me a lot
It can also deter those opportunistic, "local ones" because they know they will be caught and you can even monitor your surroundings from a distance so that the "follow-enter" types are neutralised because you would have seen them "hanging around".
I hope we all remember how Funsho Williams was killed at his Osborne Road Residence, by people waiting for him in his Bedroom?

Finally, the greatest security (IMO) is from God alone.
If "your hands are clean", there is a very high chance that you would not fall prey to the opportunistic rogues and when/if you do, with certain precautions taken initially, "heavens will help those who have helped themselves".

But all this is just by the way. One would die, when one would die and there is no need to fret.

Seems okay to me.

My only advice is to bite only what you can chew. Don't overbuild as prices of things on the ground are eye popping now.

Good luck on your project.

PS: If it were my build, I would have both kitchens along thejavascript:void(0); same wall. My concern is that cooking aromas in the main house might waft over to the smaller units living room. Might be inconsequential to most but those are the sorts of things that I look for in great architectural designs, the living arrangements. People live in living rooms and kitchens more than bedrooms.

This is the greatest advice anyone can give, for first time builders!
being one's first house, there is always that tendency for the "heart" to rule, instead of the "brain" with the result that we OVERBUILD!

Even if you can afford it, such sprawling "mansionic bungalow" becomes so unattractive to you in a few years time.
Its even worse if you are a diasporean!

My first build in life was a "massive" 7-bed Bungalow with a decking (where l hope to relax and watch the stars at night! )
I so much hate that building that l have abandoned it and refused to complete it while l built more modern houses elsewhere.
I hated it because l built it to impress/show-off,..... not for my needs and functionality.

First time builder should build "small and functional", you can even build for rent and then when you got more experience and are fully aware of your needs and taste, build something else.
You wont regret that method.

Dont be like me, take that advice.
But it is still your decision. Nice layout though.

44chux:
The flow to first compartment is the shyte and water initially with only the water exiting the last stage as treated water. The principle is just to give more residence (settling) time to the mix to allow natural separation by decantation (the solid shyte at bottom and water at the top). As long as too much chemicals like bleach, antiseptic soaps, etc are not being flushed with the shyte, natural bacteria will thrive in and greatly reduce the solid using available oxygen in air to Hydrogen-Sulphide and methane gas as by products. That's why you need to properly vent the tanks firstly to put oxygen for the bacterial and release the CH4 and h2s.

The scum gets to the second tank during initial use as the levels starts to build from zero level to the height of the baffle/ opening to the second tank. At that point only the scum has reached this level and starts overflowing into the 2nd tank.

The 3rd tank should drain the treated (separated) shyte water into the environment via soak-away. For loose soil it will be filled with rocks to avoid the soil back-flowing and filling the soak-away. The more scum or solid shyte that gets to the soak-away will reduce the permeability (ability to soak away) of the system

Sir,

Methane gas when accumulated, has been shown to be explosive!
Hydrogen Sulphide on the other hand, is the major component of an "evil smelling fart" (the type you give-off after eating bans with the skin! ).

Would these two not constitute a big nuisance to the house and its ocuupant, if allowed to generate in large volumes, as depicted by these bacterial processing method?
How does one suppress them and still achieve stated objective?

Thanks Sir.

OK. Why the rush to oust him?
Sanctions and diplomacy would put pressure on the tiny country president to step down.
Allowing Senegal to enter Gambia when you look at the map is like annexation of Gambia by its bigger neighbor.
Just place a blockade or a no fly zone over Banjul and the regime would crumble without a shot being fired. But an all out war might mean a gorilla war fare which would take longer and more tax payers money.
In my part of the world, we have a saying that if u look down on the small pot, it boils and quench the big fire

You guys are daft!

Abacha was sanctioned but he just ignored it until God took him away!

What you dont understand is that a President who has been in power for 22yrs, can live very well under sanction for the next fifty years, without a worry!
It is the ordinary Gambians that would feel and suffer the effect of such.

The mowron just imposed a state of emergency for 3months..... does that look like someone who wants to be diplomatic?

Did "sanction" make Robert Mugabe to stepdown (Zimbabwe) in the last twenty five years that it has been imposed ..... and is Mugabe feeling anything with that his pretty wife?

Point is, DESPOTS like Jammeh dont give a hoot about sanctions! They would rather have all their citizens die first, than be affected by any sanction afterall, they have amassed all the wealth.
Very Rich men dont know the meaning of recession joor!

"Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned"

It is better to live on the ROOF TOP, than to share a house with an evil woman" - Book of Ecclesiastics

God created MAN........... and rested on the 7th day!

Since God created WOMAN ('Woe' to Man), he has NEVER RESTED!

Man lived in peace and accord with God, in the garden of Eden, obeying God and enjoying the benefits
Since a Woman joined him, she scattered everything and got Man driven out of his Paradise!

God knew Women when he created them.....He knew what he created and knew what EVIL they would bring to menfolk.

But to make them irresistible, God had to endow them with "special features" otherwise, let me ask:

*Why did God give women a rounded, eye-catching backside, instead of just making it plain like that of a man?
*Why did God not put the 'Bweast' of women at the back or somewhere hidden (after-all it is just to feed the baby) or make it grow during baby-feeding and make it disappear after that? Why make it rounded and pointed so that it can tempt a man from afar?
* Why did God make sex with a woman 'pleasant and desirable' for a long time instead of strictly for procreation, like in other animals? Chickens do it for 2seconds and that should be enough!)
*Finally, Why did God create woman, from the rib of a Man and not just form her from dust (separately) like he did the man?
*Why put the love of 'woman' in a man's DNA?

Because God knew that if He did not play these pranks on Man, with all the 'woes' women bring, men would abandon them so fast.
Only God can clear-up this mess he created!

PearlStreet:
Legitimacy comes from the Constitution of the people of Gambia and not any international agency.

Next time, before any African Dictator conducts an election, he would suspend his membership of AU, and the UN.

In any case, Jammeh is an unwanted nuisance and he should be booted out.

irrespective of his membership of the UN, the whole "civilized" world can come together and determine that the president has over-stayed his welcome, once the people VOTED HIM OUT.............. and he would be removed, by force if necessary.

Jammeh himself has "condemned himself" when he accepted the result, congratulated the President-elect .......... only to wake-up and make a U-Turn!

It is just unthinkable that ther eis something he thinks he wanna do, that he had not been able to do in 22years of being in power.

But if you look closely, HIS WIFE is probably at the root of his stubbornness.
Recall that Mama Piss was isolated for a long time, till Jonathan was forced to make that "acceptance speech that was broadcasted"?
And those in the know will tell you that she was very furious, insisting that Jonathan should not have accepted defeat and for some weeks after, she was angry at Jonathan.

That is how powerful women are and a man needs to be firm in his decisions, not allowing their women to goad them into 'dangerous situations', just like Laurent Gbagbo of Ivory Coast

That is one of the reasons l admire Buhari

This surgery part is all that is required to break this case. If it can be established to be false...that would be similar to the case of the Yoruba woman accused of murdering her husband, who claimed there was power outage.

Its also very easy to attribute surgeries, meant to correct a medical problem, to the indirect effect of a beating!

E.g, she could have had a surgery for say ruptured stones or something and claim the pain was exacerbated by a punch to the already painful area, therefore needing urgent surgery to avoid further complications.

I think the real "test' will be how she would explain where she got the info that the husband shot a kidnapper and was killed as a result, if there was no dead body of any kidnapper recovered.
She also has to let the authorities know "who told her" what happened at official level, even when investigation is not yet conclusive!

Anyway, when you make one lie, you will need another ten lies to sustain it and it increases geometrically like that!

IMO, l think she arraigned it.

The part that touched me most was when the Son was crying after the father and saying "Dad dont go".... and all Dad could do was say "I dont want to go Son but l cant stay because l dont want to go to jail; You can come with me if you want".... But the Mother came and forcefully drew the Son away from his dad!
I felt my blood boil at that point. How some women will watch and inflict emotional/psychological pain on their children, just to get at their husband, is beyond me
