Note to self: Laptops and children jumping on the bed do not mix. I might not be around much for a little while.

Who am I?
My name's Dan and I live near Huddersfield in the North of England. I’m a 34 years old part time stay at home dad. For three days a week I'm also a community mental health nurse but you won’t find me blogging about that here. I’m married to Kerry and we have two children - Amy (6) and Evan (3). I keep chickens, grow veg, and take the occasional long walk. If you want to know how other's describe me then take a look here.Where else to find me

Owchhhh!!!

I feel your pain.
Laptop motherboards don’t like juice.
I’ve also cracked a screen before, but it was a employers machine, and conveniently someone else had droken their hard drive, so I salvaged his screen, but they are a couple of quid of the shelf.
Hope you are sorted soon, would these guys http://www.macking.co.uk/index.php be of use?

does it feel like a knife in your heart, a limb amputated?
did when mine went away to be fixed!
I feel your pain.
Kerry has an i phone though so it’s better than nothing!

Macbook’s screens aren’t self-repairing? I thought they did everything!
Avitables last blog post..This weekend
Ouch! Do you have a monitor you can plug into it?

Hmmm… this isn’t a clever scheme to get one of those new MacBook Pros, is it? They’re only about 1500 pounds. Or you could get a fairly equivalent Lenovo for about 900.
D’oh!

That poor little MacBook. Mine wept a little when it saw that, I must admit, so did I.

Sorry about the machine, but on the bright side, that’s a really cool image.

AAAAAH! So sorry!
go out there an buy a nice shiny new one, pronto. we need these global economies to pick up anyway!
Sorry to read/see that Dan. I have a laptop in a similar condition. The colours change if you press the screen…
Ouch! There was nothing about that in the Ten Little Monkeys story.

That is rough. I second PG’s recommendation.
Oh Crap. You have the worst luck sometimes.

Ouch, I wasn’t a fan of superhero week either but kids, that’s just harsh…
Did Evan figure out he couldn’t fly, and crash on it?
Ow! That really hurts. Does household insurance cover it out of curiosity?

I weep with you sir, I weep with you!
Such a sad picture!
:(
Good luck on getting it fixed!!
(Or maybe the new one that you have always wanted!?!?!)

Normally I would take the time to leave a cleverly-crafted comment. But in this case you probably won’t be able to read it anyway, so I guess I’m off the hook.
I’ve mannaged to cobble together another screen from an old desktop, so I’m back online although not particularly mobile.
Contrary to rumor I didn’t launch amy through the window when she broke the laptop, it was a genuine accident and ultimately it’s my fault for allowing bed jumping in the first place.
I’m not sure if the house insurance is going to cover a new screen. I hope so though. Unfortunately funds don’t stretch to a new laptop at the moment so it’s going to be a case of getting a new laptop screen insured or not.
Ahh well, such is life.
Blogging shall resume shortly no doubt, but we may be going away for a day or two soon so it might be the end of next week
Dans last blog post..Superhero week suspended
Poor laptop. But at least you have an excuse for getting a new one.
Oh no! That picture makes me sad… :(
Raging Dads last blog post..All the neighbors come on out to their front porches, waving torches
Hmmm … Oct. 16, Dan talks about a hypothetical sit-in at the Apple store while expressing his desire to obtain one of the new MacBooks. Nine days later, his old Macbook has a tragic *cough* “accident.”
I’m onto you, man.
I feel slightly sick. No jumping on bed with MacBook. Got it.
