Thanks Taffy and Motherbear, lots to take into account there.
I still haven't got to a figure, ir anywhere near it - I'm finding it difficult.
To save all the time and effort, I think I will just send a figure based on what is damaged and lost for full replacement value on everything I can think of! The photos I initially sent to Geoff were pretty gruesome in the shipping sense and he seemed quite horrified by them too at the time.
I don't want to come across as greedy because I'm not but I do want to be able to go out and buy replacements or get things repaired at last.
Thankyou all so much for your advice and I will let you know the progress as it happens.
Debra
