Unfortunately I spilt some squash on my keyboard earlier this evening and it doesn't work quite right anymore, the keys are doing things they shouldn't be or doing nothing at all!
Can anyone recommend a wireless keyboard I can buy for my mac. I have a budget of £25 at the moment.
I am kicking myself for spilling the drink at the moment...gutted!
Thanks in advance!

If you were quick about it I would have tried drying the keyboard out, a hair dryer may have helped0

Seems like it still works - put it in the hotpress upside down for a few days...0

Squash could harden and mean sticking keys. Some bold people have completely rinsed equipment they would otherwise write off in distilled water (after removing all batteries) then dried for a week in a warm place and got it sorted...
Individual Apple keys may be removable (as on a Mac) which is what I did to unsticky some keys where the OH had spilled cough mixture... I used some online video demos to learn how to remove & replace them.
Loads of lookalike keyboards are available cheap on Ebay etc no telling how good they might be. Or a refurb Apple one for around £40.
Here's an Amazon one that got good reviews at £20

Getting one with a UK layout so that the £ sign can be used will be an issue.0
