I've gome to realise that the shite things in life have a habit of all happening in waves. Ditto the good stuff.
I hope your father gets better, and the pricks that nicked your gear, get what's coming to them. They will get it, one way or another. As the old saying goes, you reap what you sow.....
Anyway, keep your chin up mate, There's always someone worse off than yourself, and as Basil Fawlty once said, "I'd love to meet him, I could do with a laugh!"
