The BBC reported a few weeks back that on a street in Windermere, motorists car remote controls stopped working for some unexplained reason.

What was dubbed the ‘Windermere Triangle’, car key fobs were mysteriously disabled and alarms would go off for no apparent reason.

Some locals looking to science blaming a new set of traffic lights, while others claimed a ghost called Albert said to haunt the nearby bakery was responsible for the electronic shenanigans.

But now, the mystery has been solved with all interference being caused by a hand-held ordering gadget at a local tea shop, Lazy Daisy’s Lakeland Kitchen.

Field engineer Dave Thornber who quickly traced the problem to Lazy Daisy’s said: ‘The source of the interference was a wireless order-taker used by waiting staff in the restaurant.

‘The device is designed to use airwaves that neighbour those used by wireless car keys.’

The culprit gadgets have now been switched frequency and the ghostly gadgetry interference is no more.
