Its not easy parking off site, especially if there is a need to use the disabled parking, and at peak times queuing on the main road is possible, and getting onto the car park can involve waiting at the barrier until someone exits the site, and for this stress and strain you are charged almost £2, this was almost what I earned per week as an apprentice.
