Got a phone call last night just as I was getting to Angel tube station. Dawkins was all better! So I diverted to Regent's Street to pick it up.
Not only did I have a new HDD, but they'd also replaced the fascia, trackpad and keyboard for some reason. Not that I'm complaining - they were all looking their age. No new logic board, though - the old one is still fine.
Got home, restored from my Time Machine backup, and Bob's your uncle, good as new.
Funny thing is, pre-Time Machine, my backups were sporadic at best. Had this happened just a month earlier, I would have lost loads.
