SIR: I read with great interest about "Clampers to be curbed" and agree that they should.
My grandson drove all the way up from Nuneaton recently after work (he works in a late night shift). He was going to visit me for the first time in two years and was bringing a friend. They arrived in Bolton around 2 or 3 o'clock in the early morning and thinking it was a unearthly hour to wake me up pulled up into a car-park in the town centre, believing they were doing the correct thing. But they were clamped and fined. I didn't see my grandson. He rang to tell me what happened.
He'd been boasting about Bolton's image to this friend of his to persuade him to come up with him. I wonder what he really thinks now!
