A couple of visitors to Brigg stopped us earlier today (Sunday) and asked where we recommended to go for a good pint and a bite to eat. They were in Wrawby Street at the time, so we pointed them towards the nearest pub, the Black Bull.
On the topic of first time/ infrequent visitors to our town, we continue to meet people at the meters who are confused by the free parking arrangements. We encountered more of them yesterday and again today.
They were all pleasantly surprised to know it's free all day on Saturday and that you can park free for two hours on all other days of the week.
One of them told us: "I must have missed the sign." Actually, no. As Brigg Blog has pointed out before, there is no large sign at the entrance to the Old Courts Road car park to tell people about the free concession now introduced on Saturday.
We think there should be such a sign and so flag this up once again to North Lincolnshire Council, with a suggestion that staff are instructed to take the necessary action. It won't cost a mint!

......One has only to look at Sargent's ice-cream van in the Riverside carpark - it attracts the passing crowd like bees around a honey pot....
On the other extreme, any sranger travelling along Barnard Ave could be forgiven for not realising that Brigg's Town Centre is hidden by the backs of shops and other premises......
