From one bad situation to another! Stolen Gear

After six long weeks we finally arrived home yesterday. We have had seven horses in lockdown in Warwick, Queensland. What was meant to be a standard weekend competition turned into six weeks in lockdown. Our horses are now healthy and free of the virus so we were allowed to travel home. The DPI sent us on a alternate route to avoid the Amber zone which added about 4 hours to our travel time, so after two days of travelling we were happy to make it home. As our property is still EI free I was worried about bringing EI home as we had driven through several infected areas. I parked at the top of our drive way and unloaded the horses, sprayed them will disinfected before taking them on the property. I then also sprayed the truck inside and out with disinfectant and let it sit for a few hours. Last night I discovered that quiet alot of our gear had been stolen from the truck while it was sitting at the top of our drive way. We have lost the following items:

4 sets of leather Sabre Cross Country Boots - (1 brown set & 3 black sets)
2 sets of N.E.W. Cross country boots - Felt lined (black)
1 set of Dalmar Air cooled cross country boots (black)
6 sets of Veredus open front showjumping boots (white)
1 set of John Whitaker open front showjumping boots (white)
2 pairs of Veredus Pro-jump open hind boots - tall boots with 3 straps (1 white & 1 black)
1 pair of Doda hind showjumping boots - these boots can not be purchased in Australia (black)
1 set of Equifit T showjumping boots (black)
1 pair of Equifit T weighted hind showjumping boots (black)
3 sets of ten minute box neoprene work boots (white)
2 sets of Horson work boots - felt lined (black)
2 pairs of Professional Choice bell boots (1 white & 1 black)
3 leather & elastic breastplates (2 black & 1 brown)
3 sets of rings (2 black & 1 brown)
3 stud guards (2 brown & 1 black)
4 pairs of canvas ice boots - these were custom made (2 blue & 2 green)
2 pairs of Neoprene pocket Ice boots (black)
2 pairs of hind Ice boots - these were custom made (red)
1 set of ten minute box stifle Ice boots (black)

That's really bad. I hope the person reads this post and feels really embarrassed. They should be ashamed of themselves. When the person is caught I hope their name is plastered in big print all over this page. sam qld
