So i've been living with a few friends for the past few years and decided i want my own space. Sold my beloved Roland drums to cover the deposit and rent. Bought a new TV, corner sofa etc.

Moved in on the 1st November......moved out the 5th November..... 4 Days in i was robbed blind while out at football training.

In total they took

Samsung 46" 3D TV

LG 27" 3D Monitor

Dell Vostro Laptop

Apple Macbook

Wallet containing cards and ?110

My work keys

Xbox Slim with all games and kinect.

Luckily they left my main PC and Micro-server with all my movies and tv shows on....oh and my pet snake!

:(

Wow that really sucks! :( Sorry to hear it and hope you do manage to get some leads on where the items may be, out of interest, where in the UK are you?

what breed is the snake? and how old is he or she?

Its a Cornsnake and probably just over 2 years old now.

Hull, East Yorkshire

Maybe just go door to door to the areas you think could have been invovled. You might just get something in sight when they open their door. Tell them you are just asking for some sugar, or you need to make a phone call... try to think of something that many wouldn't mind letting you inside for just a second.

If they seem really nervious or shaky, you can add them to a list of maybes....

Don't know what else you can do really besides that.

It was most likley someone near you though.

Do people actaully go to their neighbours to borrow sugar? You would get stabbed or shot where im from if you asked for the time let alone sugar :)

Im not pursuing it thats what i pay taxes for, let the police do their job (lilke they ever will!) just gonna learn from my mistake and get back on my feet and come back stronger and more paranoid of the world and people around me :)

Not really :p But it is a way to maybe get into their living room for a short time. Just be like, " I was in the middle of cooking "whatever" and noticed I was out of sugar. Could I please get a cup from you if possible?" Or ask if you can use their line to call something for something urgent, because for some reason, your line is down.

All you need to do is get a glimpse inside of their place to see if you notice anything familiar. Hopefully they haven't already pawned or stashed it somewhere else.

    • Huh? I have an Aeron Remastered and the backrest cannot go up or down (only the lumbar is adjustable). Yes, the Doro C300 Pro V2's backrest can be locked, but the locking mechanism is so weak that when you recline and lean back the backrest moves with your body. I think the whole purpose of this chair is that all of the moving parts (except for the rocking, which can be locked in place) are supposed to move with your body, as you shift your weight, that's why I couldn't get used to it. Some people might like it though. Its redeeming factor is the price, I mean it costs like a quarter of what a new Herman MIller (Aeron) costs.
    • Well done Massie. This is how to treat the Fox News filth.   
    • I notice how you dodged the questions I had about the racism shown by ignorant, gullible, cowardly people when the Poles, like your partner, were the immigrants. Ahem. I wonder how you'd feel if native born Brits suddenly treated you as "dirty crooked immigrant" for being half Trump-American? If they ordered you to leave and "go back to your corrupt country" (on the other side of the Atlantic), would you go? The truth is based on facts as supported by evidence. As requested in your previous posts, I have used the facts in your own post to show everyone the truth.
    • US citizens are paying to their government, who could use that to fund healthcare and tuition and relieve the costs of these for citizens instead of making tax breaks that overwhelmingly favor the rich. I'm not saying that tariffs are the correct solution, but what else would they be used for? What else could Trump have in mind for wanting them, if he hasn't figured out that labor costs are higher in the US?
