Hi Alastair, i don't know how to fix it but...
The car records the last few alarm activations, and which sensor triggered it. A quick look via VCDS or dealer VAS tool will likely pinpoint 1 sensor tripping it repeatedly.
I guess the default solution is to get bounce a few dealers / indies off one and other for a cheap diagnostics session, but i'd find someone local to you on one of the owners forums with VCDS and message them to query the alarm with VCDS in exchange for some beer. You need someone with HEX+CAN or MicroCAN version.

For a quick fix, depending on what's causing it to trip, i'd try locking it from the keyfob, then press the lock button once more. That disables the interior sensors and the sensor for movement of the car.
Hope this helps
