On Tuesday, we spotted the naked post in the station car park, shown in our first photograph. On Wednesday, we saw that it now served a purpose – and that three parked cars had acquired penalty notices on their windscreens.



There are lots of older signs around the car park telling drivers to pay, and how to pay, so we don’t think the fact that there was a sign ‘missing’ on Tuesday could be the reason for three drivers not paying. Or are we wrong?
I’m feeling dim. Has the pay machine vanished?
I think so. I couldn’t find a car park pay machine anywhere yesterday.
Sorry, I may be dim – or showing my age – but if there is no pay machine how does one park without incurring a fine?
By phone – or using the train ticket machine at the front of the station
What happens if you do not have a smart phone?
Wonder if those folks thought they had paid by phone — but the system had failed to record it.
Also wonder how many folks will stand and read all the terms & conditions before paying. Would take so long you might get a penalty for not paying !
Also do they give you enough time to get to the machine at the front of the station and input the information and pay.
