I've got one of these Cath, there's no fan in it (and I bought it from a local cheapy odds and ends shop) but it does seem to make my laptop feel a lot cooler. Mine used to get too hot to touch sometimes when it was charging but it's much better on this!
Do you think you'll be able to give up on the 1am vids? I usually give in after the casino tasks and leave the vids to get a good start in the morning.

Thanks for all the laptop cooler fan advice. Tori, was it you who said you were saving for an expensive table one, as I thought it may have been mrsyardbroom? I typed in cooling table and there is a lavato one on Amazon, have saved the link, but the url isn't there when I open the link, don't know what I'm doing wrong, but it was like a dinner tray with adjustable legs, but £29.90 on amazon :eek: However, on trying to find it again, I have found other free standing ones I wouldn't have to rest and hold on my lap, like this or this, tho don't know if they are good at withstanding heat. I could also try moving the coffee table by the sofa. Its a set of long john tables and I already have a small one near the sofa for my mugs etc. God, everything I just typed sounds so boring, thank you if you got through reading that without falling asleep lol. Clare, I don't know if I'll still be up @1am, I want to be in bed as I know I'm gonna look like a real zombie tomorrow and no concealer ever hides my tired haggard look, but as 1am nears I think I might just get it done lol.

Actually I'm going to escape to bed without SB vids temptation to play them all and hope of I catch them early enough they'll give me a good start. Night Night x

No I am not saving for a table I am saving for a little try like a breakfast tray to sit over me when on my bed as often stuck in it ill.

Don't buy the first one the white plastic one. I had one last year and it is pap. It's so flimsy it barely holds anything. Ours went out after a few weeks. xx

I get stuck with the make up one cath and I cant pass it, I have tried all sorts of options of the make up. Maybe we should fib and pop male but then answer the rest right and see if we get past it lol. I don't like lying on surveys however the other day I had one that said do you have kids? me .. NO!

Further on what drinks do I buy for my kids :-/ Me .... press the back button. No I def said no to kids so I continued. Their problem lol

I was just looking on Amazon for laptop tables. There are some that are height adjustable with wheels (a bit more expensive though) and you could use one of the cooling pads like Toria suggested. I have my laptop on a little folding table that I bought from Dunelm for about £5, but it's not very sturdy and I don't have the laptop on for a long time.

A free standing laptop table sounds good! I move around too much though and usually take it with me, standing in the kitchen cooking, laid in bed, watching tv. I suppose it would be a good investment if you only use your laptop in one place though, especially if you've got some Amazon vouchers laying about :rotfl:

And not that I'm saying you look old and haggared but I find a mix of anatomicals 'no old bags allowed' and soap and glory 'trick and treatment' works wonders after a late night!

And (finally) to keep on topic, I'm doing an Ampario survey atm (first time I've not been DQd as soon as I click the link!) [STRIKE]And I've not been asked about make up[/STRIKE]. They have asked me for my postode about 4 times though!

Typical! The next question was "what make up products do you use". Must just be for the girls!

The Ampario ones usually DQ me because there is usually a prelim question about how many times I go to the cinema. I either don't go often enough or go too often. May be that is the male equivalent of the make-up questions
