MYSELF and my husband were sat in our car in New Brighton car park near the Floral Pavilion enjoying a cup of tea, taking in the view and watching the ships coming and going on Tuesday, April 16.

Slowly the car park was filling up with people to go to the show, it was so full, people were desperate for a space.

Then a lady comes by us in out car, gesturing for us to get out of our space.

When we didn't, she asked if we were going and we said no.

She said ‘you’re just sitting there drinking tea, we have tickets to go to the show’.

I don’t care, you should get there in plenty of time for your show.

We go to New Brighton nearly every day for a little break from town and we go in all weathers, not a one off for a show.

So I think we have priority of a free parking space.

Maybe you should contact the council to make more parking.
