If its not turning over at all - check the spade connector going to the solenoid it may have come off or loose. Check it with a voltmeter. Also worth doing the main earth from the gearbox to the body.

Also - have a read through the tech section - there are loads of 'starting problem' type threads been going on recently.

Life is like a grinding wheel, it can polish you up or wear you down - it depends what you are made of !
