The dreaded error message

Technology has not been playing game of late. A few weeks ago my external harddrive broke. Kaputt! No way of retrieving the data unless I had a spare £400 kicking around to give to a company who could not guarantee they could retrieve anything. Needless to say, I don't have a spare £400!

After many attempts, and frequent error messages, I managed to finish the editing and quickly exported the file ready to show at the crit. What a relief!
