I took it to school yesterday but it rained heavily along the way. The heavy downpour wasn't on the weather forecast and

therefore

took me completely by surprise. The backpack that contained your device was completely soaked with water and on getting to the class I discovered that it wasn't turning on. I take full responsibility for

this

mishap as I should have ensured the computer was completely out of harm's way. Regardless, I have made enquiries about the repair and fortunately, I have found a technician whose speciality is in

this
