Sergeant Wilson Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 A while back I gave one of my pals a loan of a fairly large amount of cash to help him out with a deposit on a flat. At the time I wasn't in any rush to get it back but I've a holiday coming up fairly soon and could do with some of it back. The thing is that my mates grandad passed away today and he's not taken it well at all. He was really close with his grandad. Would I be completely out of order asking for some of the money back at this time? I'm thinking I should probably just leave it for now. Thoughts? Did the old boy have a telly or other eleectrical goods you could flog. Kill two birds with one stone. Offer to help clear his hoose for the pick of his stuff. You'll probably find loads of nude books as well......Everybody's happy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick_BCFC Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 Suppose it depends which council, but I got a cheque from Glasgow City Council within a week or so (circa 2009). Thanks. They told me they do the paperwork on a Tuesday and it should go into your account by the next Friday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turbo_dee Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 I just dropped my Ipod in the toilet. It won't turn on any more, obviously. Has anybody had experience of water damage to ipods and would be willing to tell me what I should try to get it fixed? There is a lot of conflicting information on the internet, so I'm asking the good people of Pie and Bovril. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a lot of conflicting information on the internet, so I'm asking the good people of Pie and Bovril. My mate dropped his iPhone in the toilet. The sound stopped working for about a day but after that it started working again with no problems. I would give it a while to dry off before rushing into anything. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a lot of conflicting information on the internet, so I'm asking the good people of Pie and Bovril. Stick it on the radiator for a short time(don't leave it overnight or it might f**k it up), it should dry out and work fine. Usually works for phones and stuff. Unless it was piss-filled toilet water, no idea of the effects of pish on electronics. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeadStar Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 Put it in a jar of rice, or if you have any sitting about from an old shoebox or that, some silica gel. Don't use it for at least a day. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Left it for a few days thinking it was fucked - wouldn't turn on either - then I just charged it and it worked. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McKee Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 You need to get the water to change state and then get it out the ipod. So you could go with dave's idea and evaporate it out, or try solidify in the cold. My mate had the same problem and he solved it by stciking his out on a windowledge and leaving it overnight, but that was in the middle of winter, so who knows if it will get cold enough in summer. Your best bet is probably putting it in the freezer for a few hours. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely if you need the water to get out the ipod then freezing it wouldn't work as the water would be unable to leave the ipod? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
