Thanks to the lovely mr

samharber, we now have a monitor and can therefore see the internet again! What a nice man he is. He hides it well, but we know the truth.

For anyone who's interested, here's a full list of the stuff I lost in the recent Troubles.

1 x stereo (+ 2 x speakers)
1 x PC Monitor (19" flatscreen)
1 x DVD player (+ remote)
1 x PDA (HP iPaq, circa 2003)
1 x MP3 player (Sandisc Sansa USB model)
1 x Nintendo DS
8 x DS games
1 x Kameleon 6-in-1 remote control
1 x DVD (Disc 4 of Green Wing)
1 x "Superman" backpack
6 x Surround sound speakers
1 x Motorola KRZR phone (no sim)
Backpack contents:
- 1 x Griffin Savers Action File
- Miscellaneous drawings
- 2 x Dice Bag
- 26 x dice (d10)

Like I said, mostly tech, easily replaced (much of it I wasn't even using regularly - especially the DS / MP3 / PDA) and probably not worth more than six to seven hundred quid all in. I'm more annoyed by the backpack and the DVD disc. Oh, and the massive inconvenience of not having a monitor for the PC. But that, at least, has been addressed.

EDITED TO ADD: Note that the above is only what I have lost. We have a much longer list of things stolen from Ant.

I may have a spare Action File...

Ah. Plainly they have nicked the back pack to put the other items in.

Also - you had a Nintendo DS???

They also took an Ikea bag, a brown bag and an empty box, we presume for the same purpose. Though they emptied the other ones out. We suspect towards the end of the trip they just grabbed whatever looked like it would be easy to carry, for sorting through later - they also nabbed Ant's big enormous backpack full of reenactment kit.

And yes I had a DS. I haven't used it much lately - I originally bought it for time spent away from home, when I was working in Kendal, I think.

Is Ant missing his PC?

He is. Well not so much the PC - it hadn't worked for two years or more - but the hard disc contained all sorts of important files and data. He did have it backed up to CD but unfortunately the backups were on top of the puter and they seem to have hoicked it all up together...

That said, there was a certain amount of value in the PC itself, especially the sound card which was quite high-spec on account of the music diploma he was studying for at the time.

If he brings a very large duffle/laundry bag into work on Tuesday, I'll see about sorting him out with a spare.

Sorry to hear about your loss. I looked at the list to see if there was anything we could replace but does not look like it...

If you post Ant's list there may be things we have access too...
