Nice. Simple and clean (possibly bordering on bland, but i like it)
Easy to navigate, you might want to think about validating your CSS and HTML.

It has a soft layout and fairly easy navigation. I picked up a bunch of small, easy changes that could be the difference between a user returning or not.

Though I'm from the United States, finding parking for large events can be a huge hassle. You can be late or have to walk miles if you're not sure where any parking is. I don't know of many sites like this (unless more are UK specific), so you may have a potential for a good user base.

1. The top navigation links (Login, Register) are pretty small. The title is so large, it overshadows these links. You may want to make them a few points larger.

2. Fix your grammar. No one wants to be a regular at a site that appears to have been written by a 9 year old. If you're terrible at grammar, have a friend proofread your content.

Instead of:
Quote:
Welcome to UK Stadium Parking website. This website will help you find suitable parking locations around the United Kingdom from peoples houses to stadiums and a low and affordable price.
Try something Like:
Quote:
Welcome to the UK Stadium Parking website! This website will help you find suitable parking locations around the United Kingdom. You'll receive directions from your home to affordable stadiums.
This also includes capitalization...
Your sample city is currently "nottingham". It should be "Nottingham".
The button has the first word lower case, and the second capitalized.
Either make Both Of Them capitalized, or just the First one.

In your "Parking Search" page, you spelled "address" wrong.

3. I'm not a fan of that "Register with us today... [Link]"
Maybe just replace the initial "Register" with the hyperlink, but it looks redundant as is.

4. The Register "Captcha"...
You print a number in the register page. The point of a human test is something that an automated script Cannot bypass. All someone would have to do is open the register page via socket, grab the number, then pass the cookie into the posted data. Though it will cut the number of registrations they can do in a given minute in half, it still won't Stop them.
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/web-design-reviews/483228-please-review-my-web-site.html
There are free CAPTCHA services available I intend you implement. If you're not going to use a real CAPTCHA, don't bother using any verification at all...

5. Warning: mysql_free_result(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /home/ukstad/public_html/register.php on line 160

Warnings: Good for debugging, bad for business.
Clients will often feel like they have broken something, and out of fear not return to your site. Make sure there is no unexpected output throughout your site.

6. In your login page, you have the big "Login..." and a register link after it.
You might want to consider having two links below the login bar, one for Registration and one for forgot password (and move that to its own page).

7. When logged in, the "Logout" link is in the middle. Usually it is to the far right.

Those are just a few things that could potentially improve your site. Also, make sure all your incoming data is mysql_real_escape_string'ed if its going in the Database.


Bruce

P.S. I also just looked at the email you sent upon Registration.
It appears at from "Nobody", which is creepy to a normal registrant.
Some email address is at the top of the email.
The URL in the email is incomplete. It doesn't work (since there is not .com), and you probably want to include the www.
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=483228
"Registrating" isn't a word. "Thank you for registering".
Put some line breaks in there for more readability.
Remember to use correct grammar and capitalization.
Also, emails usually display the "Username" before the "Password"

For heavens sake, use a Spell Checker
I understand and acknowledge my spelling is terrible, which is why Firefox's spell check for every input field is my favorite feature of all time.

Looks good. Nice and simple. I don't really like how the links turn yellow when I roll over them, but maybe it's just me. Maybe try some other effects to see if you like those better?
Good job.
