Are you thinking too deeply about this? Are you able to say what the £25000 excess in Grassington consisted of? I know this answer sounds a bit aggressive but it's honestly not intended to be, it really is just my genuine curiosity based on my ignorance and naivety on this subject.

Anne, the breakdown was given by one of the officials responding to someone who had complained about the £5 parking fee. There was something about coach hire(presumeably the main parking was some distance from the village) but nothing else,so I can't give you more detail.
As for portable toilets, from what's been said on Accyweb about them Accrington could do with them now. At least the drunks would have somewhere to sit and the benches could be put back!
Someone contacting Rawtenstall or even Grassington would be a good idea, lots of info/help there.
