The other day a house about 50m away had a direct lightning strike to it. 
This caused an induced surge on the nearby telephone system and
unfortunately this hit my modem line.

As a result, the modem connected to the line got fried.  The PC connected
to the modem died.  My Amiga, connected to the PC via a null modem cable
seems to be OK *except* that the serial port appears to be dead - I've
tried it with a modem borrowed from a friend (which works) and I can't
persuade it to do anything at all so I'm fairly sure that it is dead.

I've had a look inside and there's no obvious visible damage (unlike in
the modem where capacitors literally exploded) so I'm guessing the serial
chip has gone.  Presumably (since it's all SMD) there's not much I can
do?  

Assuming there isn't, does anyone know by any chance of anywhere that
repairs Amigas around the Cardiff, UK area?  Failing that I'll have to
send it off for repair to Analogic or someone similar.
