Parking nazis ... hate em... they get the monopoly on how much to charge per square foot per hour and just take the p*ss with it, total abuse.
For two days lay-up in nottingham I would have ended up paying about twenty five quid - with a discount from the hotel this came down to a mere £18.60.... jeez....!
But the thick as dog-dirt attendant guy, when i quizzed him over what the charges were *after* 24 hours (sign had various prices but stopped at "up to 24 hours - £13.00"), told me it was a flat rate then, i could leave it there a month and it would only cost £13.
Good job i didn't leave it all week, really, isn't it! I was paying as much half again for parking as i was for a travelodge saver room!
