Default Complete electrical failure.

Hi Guys I need some help!

As it's a nice sunny day (first time in weeks with no rain!!) I decided to fit a new battery I got as a replacement for my knackered old one.

Unfortunately (I must have had a brain freeze or something!!) I fitted it back to front pos to neg and neg to pos. turned the ignition on and noticed no ignition or neutral lights, switched it off saw the **** up I had made when I fitted it so reinstalled it correctly.
Switched the igniton back on and nothing! checked the fuse and tried another and still no joy!

Could I have done something to it by fitting the battery wrong?

Any suggestions would be great!
