How many seats do you need ?
Welcome to OOF
No difference to getting a text off your power supplier to tell you you may suffer power cuts.
Really don't understand why so many people are getting there nickers in a twist over this.

I think people are sick and fed up with gradually losing their freedom. We are told what we can and cannot do, what we can and cannot say without upsetting the 0.01% of weirdo’s, and it’s getting to the stage where people need to push back. This warning alert is never intended with our best interests at heart, we have TV for that. Just constantly broadcast it and News would spread like wildfire, preferably not on any BBC channel though as surely nobody watches their shite anymore.
It’s our own fault of course, as we love gadgets, and love to have our GPS on so that everyone knows where we are and where we’ve been.
I entered a car park the other day, simply to turn around and go back the other way. Within seconds my phone beeped and a message asked how I rated the Bellview Centre, which was apparently where I’d turned around. Yep, it’s all our own fault for these intrusions.
Not usually the most exciting things to drive, but the build quality is miles ahead of any European stuff.
Initial potentially yes (although the Japs tend to steer away from the latest tech and settle on the safer bet, proven, last gen, which is what keeps the quality a bit higher) but, after about ten years this drops off a cliff and then they can get very problematic.

I could comment .... but won't
Hondas are reliable, and scheduled maintenance is well thought out and affordable just like most other Japanese cars. But if you manage to break one.....
It could be worse, you might have been daft enough to buy a Mitsubishi
It’s actually PX24 which we used to use in the military.The letters in WD40 actually stand for Water Displacement.
Always thought that and WD was the same thing
It was originally developed by a Rocket Research Contractor to the US Defence and later for NASA, it was originally used as an preventative anti rust solution for the Atlas Rockets and also used on the outside skins for the Apollo Mission as an Water/Ice Desplacement just before lift off so any Fuel Ice Build Up would disperse within seconds after Take Off.
As TB points out its an Oil based product, purely as a it sticks rather than a lubricant, and any oil is an insulater to electrical contacts as oil acts as a insulater.
Some Airport Services in the Colder Regions also mix WD40 with the Antifreeze Solutions they use when Jet Washing Aircraft prior to take off to give some extra protection on their climb out.
He deserves a civil suit for each victim.
There wasn't much wrong with the aircraft other than the person flying it, but apparently he remembers 'nothing' of the event.
You'd have thought that all the footage might have jogged his memory.
Firstly, once a battery has been allowed to discharge, its oppsed. How oppsed depends on how excellent it was before.
Secondly, WD40 is really bad for electrics, as the oil in it acts as an insulator. Use a water displacer designed for electrics.
