“Too expensive to park in Scunthorpe town centre and the 1 hour free car parks are too far away.”

“I think it's a fabulous idea, no I really do
Just think, all the family in there for a jolly party atmosphere . . oh hang on, the kids are back at school now, still, I can get them all a nice free balloon and some sweets can't I ?
And just round the corner from the car park so not far to walk . . . it's HOW much to park ?
Well, it might be worth it if I can blag a couple of those vouchers - do they do those 'all you can eat for £1' deals ?
hmm tell you what, I'll just nip to Tesco and get a meat pie and some spuds instead”
