Seems cheap compared to central London parking charges :)
I remember when you could park out Hyde park way for free in London on a Sunday.....those were the days
early 80's
You're lucky, 5 quid at Heathrow
I would go on the bus before I would pay that....
Well that's a viable scam, drop/pick up your passenger outside the gates of the long term car park, and let them ride the free Happy Bus
Did that doctor who set fire to himself inside a jeep as a 'terrorist attack' pay his £4 ?
No, that was 2007. In those days you'd have been paid 4 quid for visiting (I once found myself with 6 hours to kill there)
that was before they started charging for drop off and anyway he drove through the entrance doors which are now bollarded .....
you will have noticed how well the fire precautions were then .... getting the common search was a pain but it worked replacing int dom and cheap ones
I remember in the late 60's when a packet of sandwiches were 1/3d
and they had black and white coin operated TVs
And weekly wages under £20
They did the same at Southampton, within days of that attack. Today, you can't drive anywhere near the entrance unless you're a local taxi, or a bus. You basically have to enter the Short Term Car park, and ka-ching ! that's Two Quid
two quid ?...bargain...ours started off at £2
Yes, when I went to the Proms on a Sunday I used to park (free) on the road just outside the hall, not far from the entrance. And on Saturday afternoons I parked (free) on Waterloo Bridge; easy access to South Bank and the West End. This would be in the early 90s.
Even more so when you include the CC.
Up until a couple of years ago, you could still park for free on a Saturday afternoon close to Waterloo station.
