No it's not it is a standard Pay and Display machine which behaves like a pay and display machine.

An update on this issue - the misleading signs have now made the Cornwall Live news web site: "Anger and confusion at 'pay and display' AND 'pay on exit' at Jubilee Pool car park One peeved user who got fined claimed it's a 'scam' with the conflicting messaging between signage and the machine"...

Okay at the moment though turn around at Liverpool was slow today possibly due to having to squeeze on extra vehicles.

It has been announced that the curent dry docking of the MV MANXMAN at Birkenhead has been extended: Manxman to remain in dry dock for 'further necessary repairs' https://www.manxradio.com/news/isle-of-man-news/manxman-to-remain-in-dry-dock-for-further-necessary-repairs/ However, the news...

Quite early yesterday morning on social media quite a few were saying it was arson which seemed to be jumping to conclusion very quickly. Perhaps the culprits were known and it wasn't difficult to track them down?

Bit of an update on the Jubilee Pool car park - I see someone has complained to Cornwall Live which has run a feature on it which has been shared around a bit of social media hopefully the owners may now be shamed into sorting it out. " Anger and confusion at 'pay and display' AND 'pay on...

Up to my incident in April I would have 100% had the same view as you follow the rules. I have been driving 44 years and have never had an issue with any private or public car park. In my early days of driving I did get one Liverpool Council issued ticket as I overstayed my welcome at an old...

In some ways the driver at Carbis Bay acted more irresponsibly than the driver responsible for the Great Heck crash on the ECML? At least the Great Heck driver did remain on scene and call for help - but was still gaoled. I know that Great Heck involved injury and loss of life - but the driver...

Just for the record as I explained to Mark by email yesterday after my Parking Eye appeal was rejected I just decided to pay up the £60.00. Not happy about it - but I had other things to do and had invested a lot of time writing the appeal, writing to Jubilee Pool and discussing the matter on...
