Is it viable to park at an out-lying suburb and get the tube into the city?  What's the score with the congestion charge thingy, is it still applicable on Sundays?

And the size of the parking bays! if you are in a van it is very difficult to park,

No charge on a Sunday.
 
I always park just outside and tube it. Hammersmith or Chris Strakers house, or nearby there if you cannot find it  :-[

What are those "Green Zones" all about?  I still drive the van in them and everyone else seems to as well. I had never seen them to recently so just ignored them and carried on in my old diesel van, never heard anything!

Also you can park on single yellows on a Sunday. If you are going early enough just turn up and find the nearest meter or single yellow. Free all day ;D. Hyde Park is a big area so there is no point in being more precise - you could end up being miles away.

Bayswater side is majority residents only but at the Victoria side, residents bays are only Mon to Fri in most zones.............Westminster has free parking at weekends, near Victoria borders.
