    never mind the photoshop add ons: where is that CP?
    Just so we can all avoid it!

    Last time I paid anything approaching that price it was in Brighton.
    £4.60 from 1 minute to 2 hours! ouch!
    Unless specifically stated all posts by me are my own considered opinion.

    Try going in to the wrong car park at Edinburgh airport - £56 for 1 1/2 days! Glad I was able to claim it back.

    At least you have a choice don't like it don't park. A lot better then a free car park but then getting charged £75 for touching the bay markings!

    Looks like Brighton.
    I'd rather be an Optimist and be proved wrong than a Pessimist and be proved right.

    I thought that as well - maybe the nearest to the Theatre car park?! I once made the mistake of parking there, one evening years ago, before I realised you can actually find free spaces on street if you know where to look.
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    Well, that's easily sorted, just straddle two bays.
