In my rush to leave home for a Parish Council meeting last night I popped my Apple Macbook and water bottle in my bag and headed out. On arrival I opened my bag to find that there was about 2 inches of water sloshing about in my bag.....looks like I didn't tighten the lid of my water bottle enough.

I quickly fished the Macbook out but on opening to see where the water had gone....of course these things automatically turn on (the worst thing you can do with wet electronics apparently). It came on briefly and then went off again. Despite a night in the airing cupboard it's still dead this morning.

I've booked an Apple Genius Bar appointment for tomorrow but fear the worst. Any advice on alternative 'next steps'? It's 5 years old but was still working great until I added the water.
