Snoop Light relief for the truly practical

After tipping coffee all over my old laptop and failing to revive it, got myself a replacement. Off the back of a lorry. Of remainders. In Bhundubukilamastan.

Under the pounding of my hot little fingers, almost all the letters have rubbed off the keyboard. I can only type accurately by lying on the floor and looking slantwise at the imprints of where they used to be. This is silly.

So: Anyone have any suggestions how I can replace them? (apart from: Find a dodgy lorry in central Asia with western alphabet transfers spilling out the back) They were originally some kind of white letter transfer... I can tell you confidently that Tipp-Ex doesn't work.

Oh, and yes, I know I shouldn't need letters. But here's the interesting thing: I've been a typist for 30 years. And I still don't know where the keys are.

Thanks.
