I certainly do not see any great difference in parking restrictions between Scotland and England.

Longrow does have parking restrictions and anyone who chooses to ignore these restrictions deserves everything that comes to them.

It should say on a sign nearby - the one outside my work says 'Maximum stay 30 mins - No return within 2 hours'
Should Scotland be an Independent country?

Yes, I believe Scotland is a country and should therefore govern itself.
No, Scotland is not a country it is simply part of the UK and should therefore be governed from London.

Are these rules really justifiable or fair, or are they just designed to make life more difficult for the motorist in an attempt try to screw more money out of them by way of fines? :evil:

Where is the logic?

These signs have been around in most towns for many years and it keeps it fair....

No one hogging the same space / street all day :)

Obviously you're not as cynical about this as I am, Maxmix. Campbeltown is not exactly short of parking spaces, unlike many other towns.

Well if you never had the cars moving in Main St every hour, the shopkeepers would be parking outside their shops all day...

No spaces for the shoppers at all.... The matter would need to be taken up with the Council and I would not hold your breath....

PS Yes I know a lot of shop keepers at the moment park a fair bit away from their premises and walk, but some don't :shock:

I ain't naming names :mrgreen:
