Not to alarm you but I was in surgery within 4 or 5hrs of the pain starting. A burst appendix potentially can kill you so I would at least phone the NHS 111 line for advice if I were you.

Yeah thanks chaps, I called them and they're happy for me to see how it is tomorrow as it seems to be slowly improving.

As for the other posts - I think not being able to see photos on Tapatalk at the moment might be a good thing...

that's good news then :smile:

Broke my laptop screen badly early this morning. 
I've now had to find another TV to connect the laptop to so I can see. 
The display on the TV misses the edges off so I've got some small parts that I can't see (menu screen, toolbar and page scroll). 
Probably gonna be cheaper to buy a new laptop than replace the screen.

Main thing is really is to back up any important documents from your laptop to somewhere else.

It's about 4-5 years old now so definitely time for an upgrade.

I have an easier solution for that. I have a 2.5" SATA HDD cradle so I can just remove the HDD and transfer stuff across to the new one. I can then use the HDD from the one with the broken screen as a back-up drive. 
I also have several portable external HDDs for back-up due to the amount of photos I take with my camera. 

There are many videos showing how to replace the screens :smile:

RIP Keith Flint,

Terrible news

That's exactly what I did. Went out and got a new, modern laptop instead. 

Still not a fan of diesels, guess the mileage and which diesel time.

Shouldn't you be working Ian? 😉

@iantt is that the intake manifold? I'd say around around 110 - 120k. This why I blanked my EGR. When I was removing the injectors to get sent off the reconditioning I had to remove the intake manifold. I used Mr muscle oven cleaner to dissolve the carbon then used a pressure washer.

This was before
