Just got on the train to customer for last day of contract and I've left my bastard laptop

at hum, charging so I could use it on the train. And the last thing I was meant to come up with was a presentation for the ExCo of a very large energy company. Deadline today. Wrath advice on winging it ? Dog ate my laptop probably not going to work. And these days there's no such thing as a company desktop.

What a numpty.
