The most amazing thing happened on Sunday. I was sat at my computer with my broken mp3 player, surfing the internet and looking for a good deal on a new one, when I had a brainwave.
My pc would basically just not recognise the player after the “magnet” incident so I loaded up some trusty McAfee software and tried formatting it again.
It worked.
Pretty short sweet and lame ending to a story which I now feel I should have dragged out for a bit longer, but you know, lifes too short.
Suffice to say, it broke on the Friday and was fixed on the Sunday. The miracle of Easter lives on!
