Narrow street, even narrower pavement

[heleninwales]

I'm pleased to say that I'm fully recovered and completely back to normal today. I slept well last night and even the arm soreness had gone by this morning. So it was a normal Wednesday with a quick visit to the Co-op before walking through into town to the cafe where the Welsh chat group meets. This morning we had a visitor from Connecticut who is learning Welsh. She was actually born in Wales and learned a bit of Welsh in school. She did really well.

And here's this week's alphabet photo challenge shot.

This week's theme was: N is for Narrow

The little town where I live has some narrow streets and even narrower pavements (sidewalks). This road is two way so cars have to squeeze past one another.

Is there ample parking on the periphery so that people who don't mind walking can mostly do that?

There is ample parking about 3 minutes walk from the square, but it's not free, so people drive at a slow crawl in the hope of spotting one of the free parking spaces. I park either in the Co-op car park or the Eurospar car park. I shop in both supermarkets and you can have up to two hour's free parking in the Co-op's car park or unlimited at Eurospar because it's further out and most people won't walk that far.

Our parking meters are generally free after 6 pm and on Sundays, and sometimes people plan their shopping around that. I'm glad I live only half a block from a supermarket, though.
