    Well this is just like a fairy tale,with baddies and lots of lots of good people and a happy ending. What a horrible way to find out how good and kind people can be. xx

    One thing that made me smile even while first seeing the mess that you'll probably agree is funny too.
    In a drawer I had a 5 grand diamond with its certificates etc. that I won last year. It was on the floor with all the mess...they had stolen bits from the drawer and obviously not realised what it was and chucked it on the floor :) Ooops

    A real heart warming story. You have lovely friends and I hope that their generosity is rewarded by the comping fairy! It definitely is not a loss what a friend gains.

    Carry on comping xx
