Thank you so much for the reply.

In the meantime I ventured to maplins, they did have something which would work but at £60 I couldn't bring myself to do it. I also popped into the little place on Dartmouth Road and the internet cafe on London Road.

Both were very helpful but I think Lenovo have an usual voltage, or something like that.

I live about a 50 second walk from the energie gym so I'll seek out that place and if not it's off to the megastore for me, the week before Christmas, wish me luck!
