Music whilst you park.

Don't particular like music in supermarkets when shopping .. lose me concentration like, but notice that in Burnley Charter Walk car park you are welcomed by jolly pop music .. today a belting Tina Turner number which made me skip up the ramp to the shops ready for the affray.

Notice parkers usually emerge from their cars with sullen faces after the effort of squeezing into the spaces; think might suggest this for our Arndale car park .. good idea or not ?

As you didn't use English in the above post, I will have to do a citizen's arrest for breaking forum rules, and you will be banged up for the night until a moderator can deal with you.

I think it is a good idea, though how loud was the music that you could hear it whilst in your car?

One man's music is another man's raucous din - I prefer total silence (is golden)

Couldn't hear it whilst in car, only as I got out and not too intrusive, but put me in a happy, happy mood, and got a smile and a wink as I stepped bouncily towards the target ..

Shucks .. thanks cashie .. but do you think would put other people in a good mood .. ? I think it might. You are good at music and could be the maestro, I will do the campaigning and Garinda can be the smiley welcomer at the automatic doors doffing a top hat to all who enter.

Perhaps 'belting' was not quite the correct word Margaret .. meant belting as an adjective... a good song, not as belting out as a verb ..think got that correct .. LOL.

Has to be something everyone is familiar with .. not classical or hard rocky stuff, just poppy songs.

As said, hate it in Supermarkets.. Sainsburys never do this and feel lovely and peaceful whilst I am shopping. Hate it in Asda, particularly when they insist on broadcasting their jingles and the Christmas songs .. aaah. Grates on me also when they constantly have staff announcements and, in particular, the person designated to the foyer to welcome you, who has to inform shoppers of two bunches of bananas on sale for the price of one. Can tell they don't really enjoy this task as usually very monotone or over the top nevousness ....
