Yeah, but the computer was purchased by the OP, not by her parents.
Anyway, Spazz, I know we've mentioned books before; and you said you can't get to an English-language library; but what about buying books online? Can you talk your parents into letting you pay them to use their credit/bank card to buy used books from amazon or some other online bookseller?.


Don't forget good old smeeBay:
www.ebay.co.uk
www.amazon.co.uk

The UK websites are probably your best bet. The postage for goods in and around the EU is generally pretty cheap. It gets more expensive when you import goods from the US/Canada or, even worse, Australia/New Zealand.

If a seven year old buys an old Game Boy at a yard sale for seven bucks, would it be wrong fo the parents to take that away as a punishment?
