well who's a clever girl then

well i have to do these things because i don't have a man around to do anything for me, even when i did have a man around, nothing got done and i had to do all my repairs myself, but i watched a video on repairing screens, and i did genuinely dream about fixing it twice, how weird is that, lol, i am glad that i did this on my own because i did originally take the laptop to the repair shop and when i called him after a week, he still hadn't got the screen, infact he hadn't even ordered it so my laptop was left in the store room with dozens of other computers and what not....that lad has also got a bad attitude and was patronising me telling me to chill out, talking to me like i was stupid, he didn't understand that the laptop is my work and i cannot earn a living without it, EVERYTHING is on this laptop but he was just being a total d!ck about the situation, so i just went and got my laptop and ordered my screen from ebay, the lad in the shop wanted £100 to fix it and a further £60 to get the screen, what a rip off, so i took my laptop, told him he was useless and fixed it myself, i know nothing about fixing computers but i knew enough to fix my screen i thought i would be doing all this fiddly stuff but i didn't it took me about 20 minutes and that was it, as soon as i put the laptop on, the screen worked...not bad for a first timer eh....lol....

I know....Men don't do that much even when they are aroundat least the men i have known that is...My daughter bought me a laptop Christmas before last And she bought it at "Best Buy" you know the Geek squad? they did not stand behind their warrenty & when mine acted up & i took it in, they charged me $179.00..So I do not like buying from them..They have a way Of turning their warrenty into, its your fault ..not ours....

oh that sucks, that place sounds like the place i took this one to, they had me waiting and making calls every day asking about it, i needed it incase i got a gig, he kept telling me to "chill out" he was very patronising, so i went in and i saw it there under a pile of other laptops, so i took it and told him to shove his services up his (ahem) within 4 days i had the screen delivered and i fixed it within 20 minutes, and i rang him to let him know, the cheesy faced bint....lol....he has no idea how to run a business people are always taking things back to him coz he hasn't done the job right, all he does all day is fanny arse around in his shop, someone will wipe that smug smirk off his face one day, he's too c0cky for his own good, i hate it when people do that, it's like when a woman goes to buy a car, they seem to think that we know nothing about them and try to sell us a wreck, they must think were completely stupid, news flash, this girl aint....lol....so i had to rub it in this morning and just let him know that for the 2 weeks he had my laptop, it took me 20 minutes and cost less....lol....i cannot understand how his business is still running because he is awful.... i wouldn't recommend him to anyone because he doesn't take his job serious and he has had many fights with customers because of his attitude

thats so true, i know people say that computers are complex machines, but fixing this screen was a doddle, i was scared to touch it at first but i knew that i was not gonna get halfwit in the repair shop to do it any time soon, he hadn't even ordered the screen and it was just laying there for 2 weeks gathering dust...it's lucky i took a month off work after my surgery otherwise i would be broke now, this laptop is my work, i need this every time i go out and do a gig, without it i am stuck...i just remembered what i saw on the video and fixed it myself, it was so easy, so now i can tell numb nuts in the shop that i did it myself and that he was talking through his butt, he would have got paid for it, but i didn't like the way he was talking to me like i was an idiot, he's a patronizing little sheeeat, one day someone will put him right in his place....so i am proud of myself today, it was an easy task and it cost me less to fix....

yeah i was gutted when i saw it drop, i couldn't believe it, it was my own fault because i was not paying attention, but i could have prevented it and it would not have cost me more money to get the new screen, we learn by our mistakes and i won't be making a mistake like that again, but it's all fixed now and i a very happy with myself for being able to do it on my own.....

LOL well i can grow veggies too, new spuds are growing as i speak, the other ones have gone now i gave them to friends and family and everyone loved them

about the screen.....i had a look at the tutorial and the funny thing was, the night i read about it, i actually dreamed that i was fixing it...TWICE...yep, twice, so when the screen arrived today i just took the laptop apart, didn't need to watch the tutorial again and i had it fixed in 20 minutes, i was confident that it would work, and when it did i jumped up off my seat, i felt so lost without my laptop, i know my friend was kind enough to lend me his but there's nothing better than having my own, so i have given him his back with a big thankyou, so yeah, if anyone wants their laptop screen fixing, i can do it for them....lol....oh yeah..... plus i didn't have to pay either so that's great, i would have been waiting forever if the lad still had hold of it, he never even ordered a screen, so god knows how long he'd have kept it there for, he's a snotty little sod anyway, i didn't like his attitude at all...bloody dimwit....

Oh yes, the sod would have kept it forever..LOL hahahha dimwit ...you are a hoot Tatty!
Wow that you dreamed it..isn't that incredible?
I used dream of all sorts of haircuts and designs and do them the next day hahahha xoxoxo
Love you Tatty!

seriously i dreamed about myself sitting there fixing it, i had that dream twice in one night, i woke up the next morning and decided that i will do it myself, when the screen arrived today, i did what i saw in my dream, i was well chuffed....as dor dimwit, he's got the brains of a rocking horse, lord knows how he's still got a business, i am not stupid but he treated me like i was....cheeky swine....lol...

Yes, some computer dudes act like they know it all LOL xooxox

when i saw that laptop drop off the bed it was like watching that candle fall on the floor, slow motion all over again, i was gutted, i had no idea how i was going to get it fixed or where i was going to get the money from to pay for it, so i was juggling in m head wether to borrow the money or not, then i thought, WAIT, if i read about it and learn then i can do it myself, i could afford the screen but not for someone to fix it, i had it done in 20 minutes, i was well impressed with myself, so i saved alot of money by learning about it and doing it myself, if i had have left it in the shop, it would still be there now rotting under a pile of other laptops, that's where it was when i went to collect it, so i would still be waiting, i did tell the lad what a complete waste of space he was, 2 weeks and he didn't do one single thing to fix it...pffffffff....what a waste of skin....

i have planted more spuds and they are growing well, i am sorry that yours rotted but if the weather stays nice they may grow and the ones you planted may grow into nice healthy spuds, i also have beets that are in shoot right now and my peas are starting to surface, i also have leek seeds which are ready for planting, i am definitely hooked on this gardening lark, i LOVE it, it's a new hobby for me and i got a great result, just like i did with the screen, so if you need yours fixing, holler, and i will come to your rescue....

wow thanks jerz, i would have had to borrow the money to have it fixed so i am glad that i looked at a video about it first, it even stayed in my head that i dreamed about it and hey presto...i did it....

oh the internet is a little box of knowledge for real, there's been times when i have spilt something and looked on the net and amaged to sort it out, easier than going to the library, so getting that blue varnish is all down to the wonderful internet, my screen is still working so i must have done it right...whoohooo me....lol...

yes i am much better now that i have had my surgery, much better indeed, i was praying that i did my screen right and that i didn't have to take it to the shop, it wou,d have cost me alot of money, and for the time it took me to fix it, i think he would have ripped me off because eben a kid could fix it, so he would have charged me £100 for 10 minutes work...what a rip....

it sounds so complicated because it's a computer but really it was so easy, even my 5 year old grandson could have fixed it, and here's me wanting someone else to fix it, he wanted £100 for the maintainance and £60 for the screen, i got the screen brand new for £60 and fixed it myself for nothing, it took no time at all....that comp lad is a complete rip off merchant...

A £100 well surprising how many people pay it as like you said they are frightening and complicated.Shame if he had charged you twenty quid and you told your mates he would probably build up quite a nice business greedy pig.

Thanks for asking about my surgery almost finished with hospital,got to go back for a check up for a check up on the 30th june but my doctor seems to think it is ok.All the best suzzy

i also found a vid to see how screens were fixed, i watched it once, memorised it and even dreamed about it and i fixed it in 20 minutes, i was so chuffed with myself, next time something breaks i will read about it first then try it out...i am made up coz i saved myself £100.
