The following Dodgers have been smited by the JDK for their crimes against Jam:
All the girls! for picking on the JDK and damaging his already delicate self esteem!
The Basserd Who Nicked Copper's Stuff For the offense of nicking Copper's stuff. You are a tw*t, whoever you are and we all hope you get run over by a tram in Nottingham. Or Liverpool. Or whereever else they have trams!
Copper For the crime of playing with her Wii instead of her Jammie pals!
According to a survey that our insurance guys did recently:
JDK's Insurance Guys Wrote: The survey found the average kid's bedroom is worth £1,720 - up seven per cent from 2006 - and some are the best equipped room in the house. One in 10 bedrooms is filled with more than £3,000 worth of goodies...
What the hell do they have in there? When I was a kid, I had a bed, a chest of drawers and a wardrobe. Oh and when I was about 11, I got a portable casette/radio.
Those of us that have kids (by which I mostly mean Susan), must now go and tot up the approximate value of the kit in their kid's bedrooms and report back. Chop-chop.
Quite right - then I want to see it ALL on ebay by the end of the day... little basserds need to know that life aint all "sunshine and rainbows!"... grumble makes me sick etc...

He's got a bed, a dresser, a bookecase, and a toybox. I could maybe get $1000 for the lot (furniture included) if people were feeling incredibly generous.
Granted, he's only 2. But I don't forsee a huge influx of expensive things - more expensive than my own anyway - being loaded in there until he's got a job of his own.

OK. Natalia (aged 7) has books and some plastic toys - est. resale value c.£500 Cian (aged 11) is lucky to have the bigger bedroom of the two, so he's inherited my dad's old pc and has a portable stereo - est. resale value c.£800 That's including the value of the furniture.
The parent's they've been surveying are all obviously on benefit so their kids have the newest of everything!
