Screwed

After mulling it over I've decided to have a go at sorting out the Mac myself. I've taken it apart carefully and have the new hard disk on order. Installing the hard disk is likely to be the easy part. Getting it working and restoring the data and all the applications is probably going to take some time...

In the meantime I'm continuing to blip on my phone. Apologies for the lack of comments and keeping up with journals - I find it hard to do by phone.
