An alleyway, which would not accommodate even the smallest car, has been painted with double yellow lines.

Swindon council said residents had asked the authority to deal with illegal parking in alleyways

Hey, careful.  Local Council has very strict boundaries.........and it looks like they have drawn double yellow lines around it.   :lol:

You have to keep the 'outdoor' staff occupied somehow.   :whistler:   :snigger:

Ah, fond memories of the UK's capital of unwed teenage mothers. Perhaps the offending vehicles are the prams they leave when they go in for their ciggies and cider.  :whistler:

it would have been better to have put a coat of tarmac down the whole width/length of the alley.
