ackers - what street was that on, i cant quite tell... I can see the pay & display sign though, least its in the shot!
fact is, the yellow line does run through the boxed area, but if its a designated parking area then im unsure what will go on...
I'll have a look later myself if I can...

Also, the wardens could either be trying to fill there quota, or it could be some newbie unsure of where a car parking bay actually is...

right
contest it
ring them again tomorrow, say you have been back to the area, you were parked in the boxed area, have photographic evidence of this, you have the pay & display ticket with the times on (expiry and so forth) location etc...
its all in your favour tbh
if they want to take it to court, let them, its there cost not yours!

I spy, with my little eye, a blue disabled drivers badge...
Can park as long as you like on a single yellow line...

It doesn't look like you are in a box at all.
Unless the we just can't see in the picture you are illegally parked.
The cars behind you are clearly inside boxes.

Is that by the BMW Williams garage?
Also watch out kids are putting fake parking tickets which look the real deal on car windows an getting cash sent to a po box address which they have set up
