    It's a tempt workplace so they can argue it is your workplace for that short time period.

    Seems like they've not moved on much since I worked there in '95.

    I did this at Radbroke, the first time I was gigging there, 2008?

    Anywho, I managed to park in the visitor car park for a whole month before I got rumbled.

    I just said, sorry I'll park in the normal parking area from now on. Which I did.

    Being booted out for parking in the wrong spot? Seems harsh.

    qh

    Vodafone are quite hot on this.

    I guess the question is, are you feeling lucky?

    HTH.

    Yup.. looks like there are some loop holes that let's large number of contractors park there continuously without any trouble.

    I can't imagine entire Visitors car park full every day. Either they don't have number recognition system or it is not working or it is done manually..? I have seen ticket like notice issued to cars parked on the way. Thanks.

    I have used visitor car parks but usually just in the first few days.
    OK. Good point. Thanks.
