This brought a response from the The Isle of Wight’s Honda Motorcycle and Scooter dealer, Church Street Motorcycles:
@DavidAThornton1 @LoveVentnorUK Our daughter’s bedroom looks like Beirut. Will that do? 😉

Followed by my response with (of course) a Looks Like Beirut certificate :

Followed by a quick response from Church Street Mc:
