I now have my MacBookPro working again, I went to my local independent Apple repair shop in town to see if they could get me a new battery for my MBP. The owner produced a very dusty battery which was the exact right battery. How much? I enquired... The owner said they had recovered it from a scrap computer a while back and couldn't guarantee it would work, take it, try it and if it works it's your lucky day, otherwise bin it.
It seems to be my lucky day, it was on 67%, I have it on charge, on 99% now, will let it soak a bit but if it's held charge @67% for quite a while it can't be all bad.
Downloading updates as I type.
