“Parking - What parking, I took my girlfreind on the bike to the Quays on Saturday to spend some cash and was told by a security guard "sorry mate, NO parking for motorbikes here" and not allowed to park in the car park across the road and walk across for fear of being clamped. Come on planners where are us bikers to park?”

“I was dismayed to see so many adults and children sitting on the floor.
Come on planners - all the successful malls and shopping centres provide seating areas for shoppers and families to meet up.
Perhaps you should visit some of the other cities' efforts before you start the project to learn the do's and don'ts.”
