    You should have seen it recently then. Those were the good old days when you were there (assuming it was before 2013). Everybody I know said they had never seen it so bad ever before since summer of last year. I used to comfortably get a space at 9:15pm. By September 2013 I needed to get in 8:45pm to get a space.

    Also they are not stopping all contractors parking onsite - only MSPs

    Maybe King Arfur could get out and do those bankers, Alderley Edge is almost next door. Wilmslow could lend a hand.

Once it started raining it was utter mayhem, everything torn up, cars stranded in mud etc I am surprised it's taken this long before making this call tbh.

    started a topic Knutsford

    Knutsford

    "The suggestion from Barclays is that all [third party suppliers] should park along the country lanes around the site or alternatively park in the town of Knutsford and get the bus to site," said a source.

    Barclays warns freelance techies of DOUBLE DIGIT rate cut

    Too right - those 911 Turbos should be well hidden from sight as otherwise visitors will curse those filthy rich bankers
