When buying from abroad I remember
tracking the parcel
seeing it in customs
waiting days too long
eventually getting the *posted* card from Parcelfarce
paying with the date they tell me (I thought)
As we are usually so jeen to get our stuff we take any date

I've just got back from work to find the dreaded royal mail note.

£54.41 for me to pay.It's a little annoying,as i had forgot to factor in the customs charge,but give it a few weeks and that will be a distant memory :D

Hopefully i can get it delieverd for saturday!!!

While they ''WILL'' deliver on a Saturday - expect to pay an extra ''large'' wodge on top for that privellige. Next working day will most likely be Monday - Unless you can work real quick for tonights loading.

Nope!

Hey gang... been looking over the installation instructions this evening. Feeling a bit nervous about man-handling the circuit board etc... usually when I do a bit of DIY round the house I can hear the music from Laurel & Hardy playing in the back of my head, if you know what I mean...
Is this something a butterfingers like myself should be trying to attempt?
Anyone else (who considers themselves non-technical) done this already? If so, how did you find it?
Also, has anyone here ever posted a step-by-step with photos? Can't seem to find one...

Nick, Honestly dont sweat it. I did mine and it wasnt difficult. I made sure kids and Mrs were out and just took it nice n slow. It really isnt hard, just follow the installation instructions that's all and make sure you have the right tools ie wire snippers. With regard to handling the pcb it's just a case of raising it carefully and not yanking it, once you've undone the screws that hold it down. Make sure you have sharp snippers to snip of the sharp solder strands (which hang under the pcb) as close to the pcb as you can, (the instructions I think refer to them as wires which threw me as they are sharp pointy solder strands :)
