"Exciting" plans have been put in place to attract more visitors and extra business to New Addington.Airstrike? Ethnic cleansing? Specially-engineered chav plague?
An idea, which was last week put forward to make parking free in Central Parade at certain times, has been hailed as "wonderful news" for the estate.Or for the estate’s car thieves and vandals, anyway…

You'd have to pay me to park in New Addington, but thanks anyway; it shows that councillors have finally realized that if you want to keep local shops open, short term free parking is how you have to do it.
The Addo, former beat of Det Con Haslam, EDL, how charming!
I tend to reserve the phrase 'wonderful news' for something like the birth of a child, winning the clottery, no ill health, UK guv'mint getting to grips with unfettered arrival of other people's problems and so on.
Parking on a street however just wasn't up there...
My own town centre is a dire place these days, not only with no free parking, but roaming gangs of traffic wardens prepared to slap tickets on moving cars if you dip below the speed limit.
"...with his skateboard and ipod touch."
And long may he enjoy them!

Indeed! Or you'll lose out when out-of-town shopping malls set up.

It's all just revenue to them.
