Mine, too, but my Lady wasn't much into jewels and sparklies. She did
like her two rings but only for the symbolism.
All assembled, her jewels might fetch anything near a UK pound at a
legitimate shop but it would cost a thief more than that to find them.
Oh, and it's "Missus" in English. "Misses" is the plural of "Miss",
it's a proper word but it doesn't mean what you thought it did. :)
I'm just being helpful. :)

That could have entertainment value.
Vids, movies, TV, music, books. A thief could copy those off for his
own enjoyment. Of course a *nice* thief would then return the drive,
because otherwise you might miss it and that would be sad.
