    Falmouth car park branded ‘absolute thieves’ and ‘leeches’ as visitors land £100 charges

    The car park owned by Falmouth Harbour is managed by Creative Parking Solutions

    Eyes down for when drivers have, for once, lost:

    Both in Salisbury and Bournemouth, councilllors are determined to close down the town centre shops. Drivers are saying it, so it must be true.

    Seemingly I replied to a post by yourself, over twenty hours before you posted it…

    The darn threading’s gone

    The darn threading’s gone again, you were commenting on the crying baby story (actual alleged crying baby, not drivers in general).

    I wonder is Swanpool lady has actually got a point?

    Helpful information from the website: “The car park is pay and display from the 1st March to the end of February.” https://swanpoolbeach.co.uk/beach-information/

    Beach-goer would ‘rather do community service’ than pay Falmouth Swanpool Beach parking fine

    Bess says the adhesive on the ticket wasn’t strong enough to keep it attached to a windscreen on a hot day

    Drivers are being denied their accustomed annual freebie in Bournemouth and it’s Armageddon already.

    Well you have to have buses
    Well you have to have buses running in the first place to reduce their fares. Even when there is a service connecting those towns it doesnt run much past 5-6pm anyway

    yes I saw theyd announced

    yes I saw theyd announced that, its tied in with Christmas light switch on events to be fair, but most of the places have plenty of free parking anyway, and even to pay to park its like only £1 for a couple of hours.

    and yes drivers do still complain, but I think its more an attempt to gain good headlines in the local press than some attempt to be “pro car”

    I was going to say I’ve

    I was going to say I’ve spotted my first Christmas extra driver subsidy AKA the lifting of parking charges in the next few weeks.  

    East Suffolk Council announce free Christmas parking

    Christmas shoppers will be able to take advantage of free festive parking this winter.

    But it turns out to be a pretty paltry offer – one day from 4 pm on each place.  Let me give you the biggest retail boom town you’ve never heard of, Wellingborough in Northamptonshire with its free off-street parking.
