Re: Thieving Scum!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm sorry to hear this because I've been through it too. In my case, though, I would have been glad to lose my computer, telly etc rather than what they took. I was robbed of what bit of jewellery I owned. Nearly everything they took was a gift, the ring my brother and late sister-in-law bought for my 21st birthday, some items from Saudi Arabia that my husband bought me and, worst of all, his wedding ring (he had died just months before). The thieving little b*****ds had also knocked out my dog (she was never the same again).
The worst thing was I knew who was involved and told the police but, as they couldn't prove it, nothing was ever done. One of the lads who did it walked up and down our road leering at me through the window for a week afterwards - he was 16 years old at the time.
My insurance covered the material cost of what was stolen but the sentimental value could never be replaced.

Re: Thieving Scum!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Good luck with finding them Wingy, i very much doubt i will hear anything from here thoughts are with you though, me and daddiboo have had a large loss this year (tv) only thing was ours was legitimate theft if you can call it that so we kinda know how you are feeling at the moment.

Re: Thieving Scum!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Simon fitted some new locks for my Mum.
The old ones he opened in seconds, and he showed her how unsafe the old ones were.
You never can be to careful.

What a great idea Simon. & definately chat to Simon about locks Wingy, he has some very interesting news on some locks that you probably thought were safe.
Sorry to hear the low-lives have struck again. Take care.

Re: Thieving Scum!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sorry to hear this Wingy. They are totally sickening aren't they? I know how angry we felt when we were relieved of some of our belongings by similar low-life. The police never hold out much hope of catching them but you do get a nice little postcard of sympathy from them after a few days.
It's not so much what they take as the fact that they've been in your personal things and been rooting about. Insurance covers the material value but doesn't get rid of that feeling of having been violated.
Our thieves stole a key, but Busman changed the lock - a few weeks later we found the key dropped in the backyard so obviously they'd tried coming back and using it and found it didn't work. Probably expecting to have found nice replacement items or even help themselves to the things they didn't take the first time.

Re: Thieving Scum!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The blooming cheek of them. Its a pity you didnt catch them when they came back and got the police, but alas they might have charged you for something than charge the "visitors as it would be easier to convict you than them.
