That sounds like quite a series of unfortunate events indeed. If London police are as inept as mentioned, maybe you should put some ‘watch’ feelers up on your EBay Acct for your items –
Crooks generally are not too bright, this technique brought down some upper level employees at a local school district hawking stolen AV and other type equipment.

Gladys and I were away for a couple of nights and during that time, our house was broken into. We are still trying to determine what is missing but so far we have estimated close to $10,000 worth. My desktop computer, flat screen monitor, and accessories are gone – and almost all the software related to the Photo Album. All of the software and patterns for the decals, etc. is gone forever – at least they left the vinyl cutting machine. Fortunately the culprits did not value Gladys’ $8,000 worth of computerized embroidery machines and just left them alone. Mind you they broke one hoop for doing the hats and it is close to $100. They found every drop of alcohol in the house including the “bucket of booze” I won at Christmas time. I had a collection of 15 limited edition HO electric steam engines and every one is gone and will never be replaced or seen again. We had security in place and it was by-passed. They took the bulbs out the motion detection system, broke the door window and crawled in to remove a security bar preventing the door from opening. Sorry for the long blog – short part is we will be back up and running once the insurance companies decided on what value they are putting on the items. FWIW – don’t assume your house, car or boat is secure. Take every precaution you can and even then it will not be enough. Stu ‘n’ Gladys
