If the sign reads: Mon - Fri, shows the hours 8am-6pm and I arrive at 7.30am or earlier or later (before 8am) to the bay and purchase a ticket to park in the bay, is this allowed?

Many parking ticket machines will give you credit for a 'free' half hour if you do this - eg if you pay for 3 hours the expiry time printed on the ticket wil be 1100.

the time show when you must pay, outside that it is free. It works the other way round too, if you turnup at 5pm and pay frolm three hours it will say 10am the next day is the expiry time.
these parking restrictions are tiresome..

i parked up the other day to go to a shop to buy some fags and the parking notice said 1 hour free (for non-residents) and 'no return within two hours'..

so i had to hang around before i could return to my car so after buying a newspaper, drink and sandwich extra to immediate requirements it was an expensive and time consuming exercise
my husband actually thought that meant you couldn't return to your car for 2 hours... I couldn't believe he was being serious but he was.....
