if you go by car to buy tickets dont be surprised if you get a parking ticket.
 the parking warden lurks about waiting to pounce.
the jobs worth seems to get a kick out of the easy tickets he can hand out down there.

Park in the slanted spaces against the wall right outside and you should be ok as its technically staff parking. I think.

i have a simply fix to the problem. DON'T BREAK THE PARKING RULES!. I hate people who moan when they get a parket ticket 90% of the time it is because you broke the rules. Get over it!!! I've had one aprking ticket and that was beacuse I parked in a disbaled bay. I knew I shouldn't but thought I'd give it a go I lost fiar play.

Bollocks. Parking in a disabled bay is a lot different from parking in an empty car park for 5 minutes.

A 10 minute grace period in the latter is common sense. If people are getting ticketed straight off the fucking jobsworth deserves all the grief he or she will get.

5, 10, 15, 20 where do you draw the line. The rules are the rules if you wanna park in this empty space you must complie with the rules if you don't you'll get punished. Simply "if you can't do the time don't do the crime" or in your case stop being a pikey and pay the £1 or whatever it is to park.

As you say rules are rules (use of common sense is no defense) - it's also against the rules to enter the CG whilst intoxicated, therefore I presume you agree everyone should be breathalysed before entering? I'm just wondering at what point you suggest deciding if people are too drunk:

10, 35, 50 or 100 micrograms of alcohol per 100 millilitres of breath?
