day out in london

[bettyboop63]

goodness can they make it any more difficult got blue badge and found somewhere to park but still have to pay as in kensington & chelsea still lookes like gotta pay congestion charge and i bet as there are only a very few disabled parking spaces prob end up as did last time went to london we got a ticket as was disabled bay and we didnt see the zone sign say not on bank holidays wanted to take all 3 Dc inc ds ASD on train and tube but looked that up its extortion i almost feel like not bothering

you do get an exemption from the congestion zone here but will cost you a tenner so unless you're going to go at least twice, it's probably not worth it. You have to be careful as some of the london boroughs do not recognise the blue badge and you'll get a ticket.

The Blue Badge scheme does not apply on borough roads in the City of London, the City of Westminster, the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, and part of the London Borough of Camden. In these areas, the councils offer their own concessions. Always check on these boroughs? website before you travel.

from the tfl site, guess that's why you got a ticket.

yes ty bigcar i only go to london once a year and yes we did get a ticket last time as it wasnt free parking on bank holidays this time it says we still have to pay on line sadly as DH in wheelchair and DS ASD (getting his joints ect checked)not to mention ive arthritis lol (least of the worries) why am i doing this oh yeah its a family bonding thing ,Dh will be moaning all day so with DD and DS (teens) but DS(10) will be in heaven and talking about it for the next week when we get back ahhh thats why we do it needed a little reminder there

no last time wasnt in those areas really was just stupid rule of not on bank hols but didnt see a sign anywhere did write n contest but still had to pay grrr oh well ill expect the worse n hopefully we could actually end up having a good day out im knackerd thinking about it going anywhere is like an expedition these days

it's complicated isn't it! Hopefully it'll all be worth it
