The mystery of the busted laptop

[Hurricane Puffrose]

Yesterday, I went to log in and thought, hmmmm that doesn't look right, and realised that there was an almighty great crack running across the screen!!

So, I am currently laptop less and using Mr R's iPhone, struggling with the predictive bloody text that keeps wanting to change my niece Jess's name to Jester.... And you can't turn the bloody thing off!!!!

So if some of my posts look a bit funky... You dun'alf look funny half a pixel high (which is how I see you ATM)

BLOODY PREDTICTIVE TEXT!!!!!!

Only you Inca!!!

I once went to Manchester, to an area called Wythenshawe to see Jess (she don't live there any more thankfully, so I decided it was time to drive home, and got the whole "don't stop while your in Manchester" thing, and I filled up the car with fuel.

Driving out, I realised that the car behind me was flashing its lights and bibbing the horn. I ignored them and continued, until the car swung round me and slammed the brakes on, forcing me to stop.

The driver got out and approached, I grabbed the crook lock and opened the window a fraction to be met by a smiling face and the words "Eh oop our Lass! You had ya purse on the roof, I tried to stop you but you didn't see me, it's a bit mucky from ya back wheels... Get home safe Lass!!"

Replacing the screen on a laptop is not a complicated procedure, and there's plenty of You Tube videos showing how it can be done, quite probably for your specific make and model.

I've just yesterday replaced the keyboard on mine. It cost me £18 for a genuine Samsung keyboard, and took less than 5 minutes to fit. I hate to think what a shop would have charged.

It might be worth looking into as you might save a lot even on the excess from the house insurance.
