My bag was stolen in Hong Kong the other night. I lost my camera, my 80gb i-pod and my sunglasses. About £1000 worth of stuff. I'm pretty gutted.

Anyone else ever had something stolen?

Edit: Oh, and my 'Into the wild' t-shirt was in the bag aswell.

    Luckily my passport was in the passport office at the time.

    Makes you wonder who would nick someone's bag. Especially when they can see it's a foreigner. You can really fuck someone's life up. It's one thing to steal from a shop, but to nick someone's bag is fucking low.

    It was really my own fault. I decided to get a few hours sleep in a park to save some money on hotels. I found a place that seemed to be pretty safe. I didn't think anyone would pass through at 3 in the morning. Then I woke up at about 7am to discover my bag gone.

    I really wish I'd woken up when the cunt was taking it. I'd have fucked him up.

    my friend got a bag nicked in front of him in malawi ... we chased this kid down for about 10 mins - then he ran into a cornfield ... what started as 2 of us chasing him turned into like 15 people as everyone saw what was going on ... we got his bag back minus a small first aid kit which i guess the kid that was a wallet ... camera with all his film and passport were in that bag ...

    if i nap on a train or bus - i always hook the bag through my arms ...

    That sucks :( I'm sorry that happened. Someone stole my purse a few years ago...we found it a couple hours later in a trash can in the same area - the only thing they took was my makeup?!?!?! :confused: My money, ID and credit cards were all there. I like good makeup...but come on :p It seemed a little gross to me
    There's a light when my baby's in my arms :)

    I should have hooked my arm through it. I definitely let my guard down.

  • Sorry to hear that Byrnzie, people are fuckers sometimes.

    My parents have a well-secured shed at the bottom of their garden where my dad keeps two very unnecessary, yet very nice go-karts. A couple of months ago, two travellers (there were some in our area at the time) managed to get through the padlock in the middle of the night and drive our go karts away from our house without anyone waking up and catching them.

    It's pretty bad but I can't help laughing at the image of gypsies riding go karts out of our garden at night. :o
