the reluctant cyclist

It looks like the house insurance covered my stolen bike but only if it was stolen from the house or garage - not if it was stolen from somewhere else!
I left stuff like that to my husband and he is usually so good at this sort of thing I'm shocked he got it so wrong!
I am absolutely gutted - the quotes for a replacement have come in at £800, £900 and £1,000.00 and I shall have to foot the bill myself by the looks of it!
It turns out that as I bought the bike on the cycle to work scheme the bike didn't even belong to me anyway so now work are chasing me for a final payment to make it mine! I haven't told them yet it isn't insured!
My husband (who also works here) wants work to claim on their insurance (as it was taken from work premises on work time and work actually own the bike) but I'm not very hopeful at all - my immediate boss has made it clear that they will not claim - they won't do another cycle scheme here either!
I'm struggling in and out to work on my Giant XTC3 at the moment which is okay but not the same as my road bike!
Looks like I'll be waiting a long time for a replacement now! I could cry!
