when finances start to look good, selling my Nintendo Wii's just made a huge bundle on some overtime work, all the expenses come in....
my laptop just died, luckily it looks like its just the hard drive, after 4 years its not too bad!
So potentially looking at a new laptop, but hopefully this new hard drive will fix the problem
Car is running on vapour (another £55!)
Symptoms of the laptop failure:
Started locking up (no HDD activity) just froze, mouse and all.
Difficult to reboot, sometimes refuses to, once it does boot, loads fine but then grinds to a halt and runs dead slow.
Took me about 2 hours to export my e-mails from outlook, trying to save the data from the dying drive.... at least i hope its that and not the motherboard! :(
-
Just £55? mine costs £70 to fill !
You're lucky, I've got to pay a huge chunk of money to HMRC ! ;)
-
HDD sounds likely. Double check its not overheating either...

£70! :o
Not even the Senator costs that much to fill.
I usually brim mine when it just nudges the red, usually costs £55-£60 ish to fill.
A new 120gb laptop hard drive only cost me £44 >:(
-
I need £60 of fuel from light-on to full. Typically, Friday night, needed to fill up and got the slowest petrol pump in the world. I kid you not, it took 10 minutes while I'm stood in the freezing cold...

Shell pay at pump only allows £60. Tescos is £60 as well. At least Asda is £70 - I can normally get close to brimming it at Asda ::)

Some pumps are dead slow some are faster, i found pumps in the U.S very fast!
James must have an extra big tank.... its its just pissing it straight out again! ;D

Well, £1.03 per litre - tank holds 70 litres! That's £70 from fumes! Been the same with all my meega's...
-
Must be the week for it! Just had to buy a new DIMM for my home laptop (new one on order from eBuyer, cheaper than secondhand from eBay) so it's crawling on 256Mb!
Glad I brought my work laptop back this weekend!
Went to the usual Shell garage today and regular unleaded still 96.9 so had a tankful of that!
-
96.9??? Bloody bargain!!
BP ultimate here is well.... you don't want to know !
