Am I embarrassed by the state of my carpark? YES. Do I wish people would stop dumping rubbish? YES. Do I wish showgoers would stop parking in my carpark? DOUBLE YES. If you're going to the show this year, please don't park in private carparks - even if they look abandoned and unloved, small local traders suffer enough during the show without losing their customer carparks!
