Ouroboros Stolen

iani · 21st March 2006, 19:57

I came home tonight to find my house has been done over, all my stuff is gone including my boris, if anyone finds some scummy little bastard trying to sell unit no 27 please let me know.

I won't be diving for a while, if again as I have lost so much stuff.

Oh mate, I'm so sorry. What a complete bastard.

F****rs like that should be strung up.

I'm so, so sorry mate.

I got burgled a while back and they took me for most of what I had, but left the dive kit I'm glad to say. I had no insurance either. W****rs.

Keep your chin up - I doubt they will get very far with that.

Regards
Paul

EDIT: tell me you had insurance..??

..%@~**!!!
really sorry to hear this Ian. Hope the thieving bastards are found and

for that!

Hate to say it but,

I'd be looking at Friends and acquaintances. If they took the Boris. They knew what it was. AND, knew you had it.

Hope you have insurance.

One of the reasons not to tell anybody about your guns in the US. They don't know you got it. They can't tell anybody and won't try and steal it. And, NEVER state you have a safe. If they have to come back a second time because of the safe. You can usually catch them with a lil video cam... Cheap nowday's.

Well I hope that none of your buddies robbed you for your gear.

My house was robbed once. They were after my guns. I had a safe, so they didn't get the guns they were after. They did steal my snowboards, clothes and other items.

Guess what......saw a friend walking down the street wearing the clothes that were stolen. So it does happen.

Make sure we get a complete list of stolen gear. As someone may see one item that leads to the rest.

Sorry to here that must of been a heart breaking moment to discover that.

We will all keep en eye out for it
I can't see it being sold on the open market by anyone whos knows what it is, how many borris are there now? Any that appear on the market will be obvious.

I hope that it makes its way back to you in one peice.

Janos · 21st March 2006, 20:47

FECK!

I can't believe it. I think they must have been opportunists as they can't use the unit in the UK.

I hope you get it back soon.

Ian- Condolences- I can't imagine how truly awful something like this would be! I hope they recover your things, and keelhauling would be too good for the thief!

This is probably a dumb question, but...

Why would they be unable to use the unit in the UK?

RebreatherNut · 21st March 2006, 20:54

That sucks! Sorry to hear about all your stuff gone. Make sure to keep a close look on ebay. Sometimes that stuff shows up faster than you think.

All the best,
