Some of you know that I run a lighting rig as a hobby, which recently had started to get pretty good (lasers, visuals, pyro, integrated control etc). Unfortunately I no longer have said lighting rig as some bunch of lowlife nicked the whole lot. My van was recovered from the bottom of a river and they'd even nicked the bonnet! Probably pikies, and probably already flogged fifteen grand of equipment for a few hundred quid, but if by chance any of you are in the industry or know someone who is, please pass on my missing equipment list just on the off chance.

Suck!

Sorry to hear that.

Wow. That really sucks. Was it insured?

Wow. I am so sorry.

I've been the victim of theft before, but not on that kind of scale. Wow. You must feel just absolutely awful right now. My deepest sympathies.

Ouch.

Sorry to hear about this.

Sorry, Rob. This really sucks!

I'm sorry, Rob.

I hope they can recover some of the gear for you.

I know a couple of lampies (admittedly in Manchester), will let them know.

Try the local car boot sales and markets too.

Wouldn't rule out the local Ca$h Converters too.

I'm really sorry to hear that Rob

Really sorry to hear that Rob, it was a mighty impressive rig

What you need is to come and get pissed with us all and we'll all buy you a pint, that should make you feel a bit better

Cheers

Cris.

Buncha scumbags - sorry to hear about that Rob! Fingers crossed the kit appears somewhere...

Hey Rob, I really enjoyed some of that stuff at last years meet & really sad to hear that its gone. If I had my way, thieves would lose their fingers.

Thanks for all the comments, I'm just going to have to come into some unexpected money and buy an even better system.

The good news is that the insurers have agreed to pay out what I paid for the van. I expected them to quibble about it more than they did. Perhaps they didn't want me to pull my more lucrative car policy from them!
