Pensioner fined £100 for 37-minute stay at car park
Despite paying a £2 fee to use Hunters Place car park, Mr Robinson received a fine through his letterbox from Civil Enforcement Limited, a Liverpool-based parking fine company. He was told in the letter that the fined had been levied because he and his wife had either stayed longer than the allotted four-hour time slot or that a payment has not been made 'in accordance of notified terms'. But Mr Robinson maintains that he paid for his visit and left well before the allotted time was up. The 85-year-old Ardentinny resident says he has made two appeals to Civil Enforcement Limited, but has not had any response yet, and added that he is 'frustrated' with the firm's 'poor communication'. (Image: George Munro) He told the Tele: 'I parked here with confidence that my money was accepted, and I was covered. 'I would hope that they would ask me why I am appealing because at the moment when I try to appeal, I am not hearing anything back.' The former community councillor parked in Hunters Place as his wife struggles with mobility issues and says that spot was best for accessibility. Mr Robinson wants to make sure no one else gets 'caught out' with a fine and says he will continue to appeal his charge. He added: 'There are all of these disables parking spaces, and it doesn't count when people don't park here for fear they will be fined. 'You think you follow the correct procedure and then you get a letter through your door telling you otherwise. 'A lot of people would just pay the fine, but I am not one of those people I am afraid.' (Image: George Munro) Mr Robinson added: 'I know a few people who belong to Inverclyde and even they say locals never use this car park because they have had all sorts of problems with it.' The car park, which is primarily used by Oak Mall shoppers, is owned by the shopping centre, but is not operated by them. The Telegraph contacted both the Oak Mall and Civil Enforcement Limited for comment on Mr Robinson's fine, but at the time we went to print had not received any response.

Nick Nairn: 'Hospitality industry has been hung out to dry' Nick Nairn has spoken of fears that Scotland's hospitality industry has been "hung out to dry" amid increasingly challenging conditions. Following the closure of Nairn's in Bridge of Allan last year, the celebrity chef has shifted his focus back towards the Port of Menteith cook school, restaurant, and lifestyle store, which he operates in partnership with his wife, Julia. It has been a successful summer for the duo as they build on a venture that "ticks every box" for their shared creative passions and celebrate 25 years since the first series of Cook School demonstrations took place. Despite this, Nairn remains vocal regarding the unrelenting pressures on hospitality businesses across Scotland and warns of the impact this could have on a nationwide scale.
