Oh you never know maybe you'll get more passing trade if the Bus is going past your door, you won't need parking then.

how about people get of their fat arse's and walk a few yards.That shop has been there for donkeys years and if he is suffering loss of trade i hightly doubt its because a car cant park outside his shop its more the fact that there are other alternatives to choose from like teh shop across the road plus cheaper shops further into clayton which incidently dont have threat of clamping signs in their windows

the sign has probably caused the arrogant sod even more loss of trade lol

if you want parking for your customers move location to somewhere with a private carpark

Can't be sure, but don't think it is there now .... was driving. If it is, can't be that big.

My brother lives 2 mins from that shop and would rather walk to the co-op.

That's it... you just encourage the lad to nick a car 1st

emily90 · 09-02-2010, 18:18

he doesn't have a clamp and to be honest even if he did i can't see him actually using it. the sign could be there for when they get deliveries and stuff so that if there is cars in the way he knows that the person won't be long because they are only in the shop x

accyman · 09-02-2010, 18:29

in that case he shoudl purchase a please dont park here when deliveries are due sign and not put up signs threatenig clamping peoples cars .My pal has a main road buisness and simply asks cars to move or makes do when loading his van what he dosnt do is threaten to clamp people cars and get peoples backs up as it would be extreemly bad for buisness and would end up having negative remarks amde about him on the local website lol

Please can we keep the thread to talking about the parking issues and not make accusations about the shop that might cause trouble for this site.

Restless · 09-02-2010, 23:26

i live (soon i wont be) close to that shop and i have never noticed the sign. Of course i am just a pedrestian and dont care where people park as long as long as it is not outside my house where they will be clamped!!!!!!!!!!! lol
