Currently being investigated by the head of the parking group that got DSFP kicked out of the Sandhills car park in Devon.
G24 signs have appeared at a B & M store in Barnstaple restricting parking from 8am to 8pm, but the store is believed to close at 9pm.
Watch this space.

Oh I undoubtedly would if I lived in Barnstaple. I would do it every day, and get my friends and family to do the same.fisherjim said:I would get a trolley full of stuff go to the checkout at 7:50 panic and leave it there telling them you need to leave before their parking scam starts.I married my cousin.
