Frackin' Motherfrackers!!!!!!!
So... we got burgled overnight Wednesday/Thursday.
We were asleep (my Aunt, her partner and the 3 kids were upstairs asleep too) and they got in through a window, unlocked the backdoor and made off with a load of stuff. The laptop (noooooooooo), PSP (nooooo), my cousin's PSP (he's only 7, bless him), iPod Touch (nooo), wallets, purses, mobile phones, Sarah's work bag, including her ID badge and stethoscope. So we're pretty screwed over.
Sod's law that we'd be here for a year and then we get burgled less than a week before we leave. Also, we're not insured properly! The old insurance finished on the 20th July, so we started the landlord's insurance straight away, just a week or two before we left. But that doesn't fully cover our contents, so we're out for the full value of everything that got nicked.
It's all stuff that can be replaced (albeit, a couple of grand that we don't have), but we were more upset and angry that someone had been in the house while we, and the kids, were asleep. Bastards.
I'll be online next week at my Mum's still, and I think we'll stretch to a new laptop pretty soon after we arrive in Australia - it's really a necessity for keeping in touch with everyone. So i get a new laptop, but that's not really worth getting burgled for lol.
