Yoshi says hello from 2012.

Had a conversation about this car park over xmas dinner, like you do. Not only do they have teeny tiny spaces they also fine you for leaving the car park on foot even if you buy stuff in the group of shops.

Yet to go back with my measure, as have a life

they fine you for leaving the car park on foot? I'm not sure I get the point of a car park you can only leave by car?

Two biters.

So as I have had a lovely day at the football I'll indulge you with answers.

Richard - a car park is to park your car in when shopping in the centre you are in. If you purchase items in the centre then its not unreasonable to leave the area for short while to shop nearby. If you fine your customers they wont return or shop there again.

This was the discussion not the car parking widths which I did ask for an opinion from my mother who struggled to get in or out of her fiesta as they are that narrow.

Yes see link. Probably why they can get away with tiny spaces as its private.

Drakehouse retail park is similar. Apparently drivers have received tickets after parking and shopping in Drakehouse and then walking down to Crystal Peaks shopping centre.

Reference to someone asking about whether a bloke on the internet has been to measure a parking space on Valentine's day.

Must have been thinking about me, bit weird

Ah, I thought it was an autofvckup. A comma would have helped.
