maxwell   10 #6 Posted January 4, 2006 I think it is something to do with monitoring how long you are parked in the car park ,apparently you are allowed 2 hours parking go over that and you get a ticket from the contractor who monitors the parking.Ie as you enter the entrance your car is picked up by electronics,could this create the bird like noises,thats my theroy.

It was quite funny. Never heard the fake bird song though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

littleboo   10 #9 Posted January 4, 2006 I think its more to do with "The perfect image" Mary poppins syndrome!!  They also pump out smells around the supermarket to make you buy more... ie Bread, washing powder, fresh coffee, roast chickens.......... you didn't seriously think that bread was baking all day every day did you!!
