Woe is me! I have been computer-less for nearly 2 weeks now, and it's driving me mad! After spending 25 minutes (and about 13 quid) on the 50p per min helpline to Tiny, I was told that my hard drive was faulty. The guy quoted me about £200 to have it fixed. Being rather a computer novice when it comes to these things, I duly sent it off to Tiny, thinking that "well, they built it so at least it's getting repaired by the right people".

After a week with no news (getting impatient), I phoned Customer Services (on hold for 20 mins) to enquire, and was told that due to a backlog, computers were being sent out to other firms to be fixed, and mine had just left the factory that morning and would be about 15-21 working days!!!

So, it is not getting fixed by the people who I thought, it is pretty expensive and it is taking too long!!


I'm currently having to make trips to the local library to check email etc., but at least it's free. I only used to go online for about 30 mins a day, but I'm really missing you guys. I also didn't realise just how much I was addicted to Freecell!

I guess I'll be visiting again in another week's time, but I'm so looking forward to the day when I can get online without having to make a bus trip first!!
