Brantuk Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 I've painted a door white and put it against the wall at an angle so I can get under it. If it saves me from an atomic bomb then a solar storm will be chicken feed lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BAZ Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 "When the wind blows" by Raymond Briggs. Originally a comic style drawn book in a similar vein to his Snowman. The animated film was just chilling. He had a great style of making light of something, until the point he was making slowly dawned on you. Blimey I have just found it, here's something to cheer you up. Sort of relevant with that nut job in DRNK. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N9aHT-IlkHo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orion Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Don't laugh, my laptop just broke Friday morning. Black screen of death "error, loading operating system". I also might have lost 3 months data if the hard disk is fried. I doubt it's particles from the Sun since they probably take a day or two to arrive. I have so many things done via internet, without it makes it difficult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek I have a reader that can pull everything off your hard drive as long as the hard drive hasn't been damaged (broken smashed etc.) :D If it’s just the operating system corrupeted all your photos files etc. should still be accessible Allan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
