I dont know if it has been mentioned on the forum but there may be parking problems this

weekend.

I believe there is a Swimathon at the pool all weekend as part of Sport Relief programme.

What's the situation with the 3 hour parking limit in Morrisons - guessing it doesn't apply once store is closed as they'd have had 100's last Sunday which the game starting late / overtime.

Someone said before that the Morrisons car park is overflow for the flats so the 3 hour limit is just a scare tactic. I'm pretty sure I read that private car parks such as that would have a very hard time getting a court to back any kind of fine anyway.

We have agreement with Morrisons but they prefer you not to park near store entrance. I just wish there was some way of keeping our car park for us.

I always use Morrisons too! Not sure if any of you thought of Toys R Us Carpark but apparently they lock up the gates after closing so if you do you'll be stuck! Sure your mostly aware of this but just in case!

Question on this one.
The ToysR Us barriers seem to have been removed. I could see no gates. It could be ok in there however do we have their permission?

I wasn't aware the barriers had be removed! Can't say I'm aware of permission too but if the carpark is left open after Toys R Us closing hours what can be done about it really? I always park in Toys R Us Carpark in Swansea After hours, and sometimes leave my car there all night if I'm drinking (even slept in my car in the carpark once) didn't have problems. Not worth the risk though, but if it's jam packed everywhere else don't see why can't ask the manager before leaving the car there?

Don't the barriers rise up from the road surface? I would double check this before you park there. I can't remember seeing a gate.

This! Sorry my bad didn't realise he meant actual barriers as opposed to the one's that rise up!

More than probable that the plans for phase 2 of the "Winter Sports Village" will be filled in section 13, the same bin as

1) Mini Manhattan at the ISV.

2) Glass Needle

3) Various Opera Houses

4) Bay Pointe

5) Capitol Apartments

6) Merchants Place

7) Observation Tower

8) Bayscape at ISV ( A huge £1 billion development , an LSD induced vision)

9) ISV Casino (sold as Cardiff's Las Vegas, same LSD party as Bayscape)

10) Centre plan 70 (real oldie)

They always did but I noticed at the w/end there were quite a few cars parked in there, even on the Sunday with shorter opening hours. However must admit I wouldn't take the risk. Morrisons will do nicely

They have posts which come out of the ground. Avoid it. I got caught out once for my first game at the BBT but managed to get out round the side. It's not possible to do that anymore.

I may park my very own Bob the Builder bulldozer that I bought in Toys R Us many years ago in their car park, and if there are barriers after closing hours I will just drop my blade and simply remove them, plastic my blade may be,but my bob determination will see me through, Can I fix it yes I can.

Good enough for me ( don't particularly care if it's never built tbh, my main interest of course was always the arena.
