A tourist has vowed never to return to his holiday destination of 40 years after racking up £760 in parking tickets in 12 days. David Watt said his love of Cornwall had been soured after he was caught out on several occasions.
He said he was made to pay what he said were 'exorbitant, over-the-top fines that do not fit the crime'. He said he was fined after going to a Spar shop to collect newspapers and croissants.
Mr Watt's favourite spot is Polzeath, where he met his wife, and the couple have brought their children up to enjoy the area much as they do. But he said the love affair was - for now - over.
