I won't do what again? Nobody got a ticket and I certainly wasn't the one who was threatened with it. Again, if you read posts properly you'd know this. As for parking, I'd be amazed if the Odyssey has a specific rule about parking between lines.

Oh and as for your post count .... it has a lot to do with it. If you use your very first post on a forum to spout off the way you did then you'll soon find that no-one has any time for you. I do hope your only reason for coming on here was to post belittling remarks and not to ask for advice as I can't see you getting much of the latter.

I'm not on about you and I didn't say anyone got a ticket all I was trying to say was if you don't park within the lines, don't park in a bay or park in a disabled bay then the car will be issued with a ticket, I know mia didn't get a ticket as the guy said to her about the way she was parked. I was just saying what the signs say and if anyone parks the way they shouldn't be parked then a ticket will be issued.

We were at the cinema at the same time as a big concert was coming out. When we got to the pay machines we were told by an attendant that they were taking cash at the barrier to make the exiting quicker.

Needless to say when we arrived at the barrier the young fella told me it was (can't remember the exact amount but say it was £3.50). I said I'd been in the cinema for a couple of hours and wasn't paying more than (again, say £2.50). He said that was the price and I'd have to pay it. Told him I wasn't moving my car from the barrier and that he could contact his supervisor if he wanted.

Needless to say I paid my proper amount and left but be aware if you're ever there at the same time as a concert is getting out and you are told you can pay at the gate that they will try to charge you the same amount as if you'd been there for 4 hours instead of 2.

Good for you. The bustards should never be allowed to get way with something like that.

Sorry to hijack your thread, but on the subject of parking at the Odyssey does anyone know whether or not they still sell commuter parking passes for during the day?
I was just wondering as I was drinving past the other day around midday and the car park was much emptier than it was back in 2009,which is probably the last time I have been near the odyssey during the day.
I know there was some kind of injunction issued by court in late 2009, stopping commuters parking before 9am and just was wondering what the final verdict was.
Thanks.
