Many thanks for all your replies, I have no problem in paying the fine, obviously I know I am in the wrong, but that is not what this is about. If I do win this, I will be happy to pay what would have been the fine to a charity as I am not out to avoid trying to pay my 'dues'. All of you who have posted on here have obviously not been following the recent documentaries shown on tv, regarding people that have successfully appealed parking tickets because the council who has painted markings on the road or put up signs, have done so incorrectly. The road markings or signs must be applied as per the road traffic act and any that are missing such things as termination bars on double yellows etc are not enforceable. I agree that this does not mean that we the public, should ignore basic safety rules and park where ever we like, but I think that people are now feeling that their councils are getting too many things wrong on a regular basis and if nothing else, people starting to win appeals will make them, in effect do their jobs properly!
We will have another look at the site that give us the information to take this to appeal and if I feel that the information may be incorrect, I will think again about continuing with this, JudgeJ, I may have a further right of appeal, I don't think it has quite gone as far as I had thought!
Once again many thanks for the thoughts posted.
