Bug ID – bed bug nymph or booklouse?

Hi all,

Hope it's OK to post this here. I couldn't see a sticky excluding bed bug ID posts, but apologies if this isn't allowed.

Here's my bug... http://imgur.com/gallery/rx3AIEw Bedbug? https://imgur.com/gallery/JbDOqBQ

Some context... I live on the southeast coast of the UK. Its a fairly humid area. My house has damp/mould issues and I have a lot of books, which I hope tips this ID more towards booklouse than bed bug nymph. I didn't measure it before flushing it down the sink sadly but it was probably about 1mm long. I found it on my laptop, which was laying on the floor.

Hope that's enough to go on. Thanks very much in advance!
