I HAVE hardly stopped laughing at the council’s latest joke.
I refer of course to the revised parking charges in Lymm village.
We are allowed a generous 15 minutes free on Davies Way. I am 81, my wife 77.
Flat out we can just about walk into the village, about turn and walk back to our car in that time.
I presume that the clown who thought this one up: A: has no affiliation with the village.
B: has no aged relatives who need to use it.
C: is young and fit and can run to the village.
D: is affluent enough to regard £1 as an insignificant charge.
I very much doubt whether the free time is of any use to anyone and is virtually a pistol to our heads – pay up and shut up.
