An hour to drink a coffee should be enough anyway, for those who aren't boycotting...Anyone going to the Costa on Devonshire Road opposite Lidl should beware you can now only park for 1 hour . Overstay and it's a £100 fine. Don't have a go at the Costa staff though, it's nothing too with costa.
Just thought I'd let you know.
You're right that people shouldn't pay them. Ignoring them isn't the guaranteed win it once was though.It's not a fine it's an invoice. Throw stuff like that in the bin
