I'm banking on the wisdom of crowds. The result of the poll.

I haven't seen a follow-up video about the repairs. It would be interesting.

Lots of things I might have done, if it had occurred to me that this might be a problem some time before I was sitting in the car outside the hotel, and my friend was already at reception checking us in and arranging the car parking!

We've seen that already, but I think it's great so let's have at it again!

Still no turtle though...

That's what I've decided to do. There are a lot of cars in the car park obviously, but I don't know any of their owners so getting a jump start that way might take as long as just going up the road to get a starter battery. The main thing is that I have a plan of action just in case the car...

That's what Octopus doesn't like.

I don't know. But anyway, thinking about it, simply putting the car in ready for a bit would be a lot easier than taking it out to put it on a charger. At the moment though, I'm feeling lucky.

I'm not sure Octopus like you doing that.

Oh, they're sharks. But that's not the issue. My friend negotiated a substantial discount by paying in advance for five nights parking, but the deal was that we can't leave the car park during that time or we have to pay again for the remaining time when we return.

I don't know where the suspicion came from that it was 50%. That seems pretty ludicrous on the face of it. The only car I know where they did the experiment, the answer was 30%.

Maybe I was worrying about it when I started the thread on Tuesday evening. But a lot more has been said since then.
