Not likely to get them back, most of my daughter's travelling pics weren't on a disc..
ouch

I'm on my other daughter's laptop, her house does have a dog, but we only have a lease until March, so getting a dog isn't an option, it's so much harder to rent with a dog.

Even if I'd had a gun, two lappies are NOT worth a life,
just to satisfy some revenge (over-emotional) reaction.
