RECENTLY, I had to use the Loosing Hill car park for a walk-in appointment at the X-ray department at Hexham Hospital.

I haven’t used this park since ‘free’ parking was introduced, only using Wentworth and Gilesgate.

Red bays for two hours with disc, and the white bays with no parking discs. Fine, sorted!

I drove into a white bay at Loosing Hill, so I didn’t display my disc.

When I came back I had a parking ticket!

What is this all about? Who is in charge of this mad scheme?
