COMPUTER EXPLOSION

It was 10.15 on Monday night and I decided to check my emails. I sat down at my computer desk, placed my pint of ice cool Ribena on the coaster and leaned down to press the on button.

BANG! An internal explosion and loud electrical noise, combined with swirling, billowing smoke. 'Not good', I commented, before frantically ripping out all the cables from the back, unscrewing the casing and making sure that there was nothing on fire. Six months old and £800 and this is what it does to me. Thanks the Lord it's under warranty.

Consequently, dear reader, I am afraid that there will be relatively few updates on the site as I am only able to blog from work, and I hardly have a spare minute.
