Parklife is back this weekend - and so is a parking nightmare for one family. Last year a young electrician who got a parking ticket after leaving his car outside his own home ended up paying a £424 fine.
Reece Dawson left his Ford Focus outside his house in Prestwich during the music festival in June last year. But as tens of thousands of festival-goers headed to Heaton Park, a parking warden slapped a ticket on Reece's car, despite being told he lived at the address.
The warden issued a fine as there was no special residents' parking permit on his car. Reece and his family said they had applied for extra permits after receiving two but no further ones were issued.
