Expensive Mistakescoopsweb asks "What's the most expensive mistake you've ever made? Should I mention a certain employee who caused 4 hours worth of delays in Central London and got his company fined £500k?"
No points for stories about the time you had a few and thought it'd be a good idea to wrap your car around a bollard. Or replies consisting of "my wife".

Not me.....But I was involved....
A Long Time Ago in a neighbourhood not too far away I worked for a set design company, and they had just recieved a MASTER copy, on VHS, of the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles film,(c1990) this was before the USA release.
Commuting to Brixton, from my neck of the woods was an absolute nightmare, and so some of us would sleep at the workshop, whilst others would be working furiously to get out the next piece of fake imagery.
One night two or three of the locals decided break in and see what was available to steal and sweeping aside the VHS cassette, they decided to nick a bloody VHS cassette player.
My mistake in all this was NOT getting the original comic for £5 from Forbidden Planet when I knew this film was going into production
(my first length joke...) about 93 minutes
