This must be one of the most dreaded things that can happen to T & T members.  I know how I felt when we got our van broken into, so I can imagine it is ten times worse. It is the "injustice" that you are told you probably won't see it again, that makes you feel even more angry.

Hope all turns out well, and keep with us.

:plane: For you babe, luv u lots

So sorry to hear of the theft of your Motorhome. Lets hope the scumbags get caught. Just what you don't want at the begining of the season.

Sorry to hear about the theft. When we were broken in to at home it was not just the things that were stolen but knowing someone had been in the house.

It can take a long time to build up the confidence. Each time we come back from a holiday I always have a sinking feeling in case we are coming home to another burglary.

MIKE.B.......Sorry to here about the theft and hope you are gradually getting over it.....We had the unfortuate same thing happen to us last Oct. It's also not only the van you lose but all those personal items as well in the van that you have gathered over the years.........We have now got a replacement van and can say it's like starting over again which in some way is exciting but in others we keep remembering all those little things we have lost......Best thing that can happen now is as soon as you get the insurance sorted is get a replacement and start enjoying you hobby/holidays again.........If it's any consolation the police did not even pay us a visit when ours was stolen either.....Hope everthing goes ok for you.................Mick

Mike. As others have said, it is one of your worst nightmares, and how often have we all arrived home from a few days away or even a night out and breathe a sigh of relief that the van is still there. Hope you manage to get everything sorted quickly and you are able to enjoy your planned holiday.
Personally I think the old Arab idea was the best..........Chop off the hand, if they do it again chop off the other, they don't do it a third time. Mind you, I guess we would all be paying the price for social services etc to look after them afterwards.   :rant:
