Who did you vote for in last local elections ?
If it was for the people in the red corner - then enjoy your parking bill, your lack of parking spaces and the deliberate traffic jams. Local councillor Caro Wild was the person behind this - as well as shutting Castle St and putting in a million pound road works scheme on Penhill / Cathedral road - that saves 35 seconds of journey time.
No doubt someone will be along in a minute to blame it on Thatcher etc ...
