ok im just about fucking sick of this and i swear i will kill the fucking scum who stole it. 
 
Ok so it wasnt my mint green one, but the flaire that I have bought to use whilst the mint green one is getting redone 
 
anyways, here it goes.. 
 
 
had a new product and development presentation yesterday in which i took all of my in car PC hardware into uni with a custom built dashbaord to do a presentation for a business idea that i had, and help patent my gear knob 
 
had the equipment set up for a few hours, and did the presentation to about 40 people, lecturers, few external investers and uni students 
 
i was showing them all the stuff i had in my corsa (the mint green one) and how much it was all worth 
 
so i drove home with all the gear in my car and 1500 pages of work on the project (full years work) and then took it all out of my car as it was in flight cases for transportation 
 
anyways, i was up till 5am working on it as it has to be in today, and remembered id left my 1500 pages in the boot, i was going to leave it in becuase i was driving to uni at 8am to drop it off, but i took it all out late on "just in case".... 
 
anyways, i got up and went oyside at 8am to find a fucking gap where my car was 
 
it had a knew steering wheel lock on it, and nothing at all (beside my CDs under the mat) worth pinching 
 
phoned the police and told them, and the people at uni said it looks to them like someone has took it thinking all my PC stuff was till in it 
 
why the fuck would they take it when there was many corsas on the road without ANY locks on them? 
 
im sick as fuck

yep it is all on CD with 4 back ups 
 
luckily i took the folders out, but there was a few pages left which have gone, but are backed up 
 
im just glad i didnt leave the equipment in it as i was planning on taking it all back to darlington once i had dropped the work off at uni
