I think its an attempt to avoid the aggro/bad feeling involved in getting a ticket, and also a result of feedback at some of the forum meetings, where it was seen as a more inclusive way of raising ££ - Quotethe number of regulars will still be insufficeint agree with that, but I'll be getting one, and I never paid for parking.
Possibly because you're not entitled to pay? Call me old fashioned.

If you can afford to drive out to the plantation you can afford to pay for parking.

Fortunately, half of the Leeds-Brimham route is downhill so I could save a great deal on fuel and still afford beans on toast.
Tom, and yes, didn't the banker get vilified for cheating the system; it seems as if we're happy if 'our tribe' cheats, rather strange if you ask me (I won't mention lefty hypocrisy and a lack of morals).
