hawkida 's guest bed last week. Said I'll fix it. Was hoping it would be easy either to buy a,metal plate or some short pieces of wood to reinforce it, or a replacement slat. Can't be done. Only long planks, which is fine except I can't get one of them home on the tube.
Was also hoping I might be able to get a charger for my laptop. 40 Quid! I could get one for half that off ebay, but that would involve waiting. I can get one for a tenner but it's an unofficial one and I'm slightly wary of those. Car chargers are no cheaper. Guess I'll just do the detour to home before Eastercon. I'm only in one evening and there's a good 3 hours of life in the laptop. Plenty for checking email/facebook/LJ
