This is indeed heartening news - clever girl.

I have a currently running issue over a parking ticket - my first in 35 years of parking.

It's a good one and you'll all be the first to know.

That's a whopping £628,600 in fines!

Additionally, the adjudicator who did my hearing also ruled that the junction was flawed so I'm now starting work on getting Lambeth to hand back any fines that they collected at this location. . .

Anyway, just thought I'd let you know the outcome and thanks to you all for your support.

Cheers,

MM

Absolutely fantastic! Well done for sticking with it and winning, a lot of others might have given in and paid these highwaymen

Ooops, sorry MM, so you are - lapse of concentration there methinks.

What great news MM

I am delighted to see yet another London council get the 2 fingers from a ruling body to say they are in the wrong!

Quelle coincidence - didn't know anything about the programme, and just plonked myself down on the settee, turned on the telly, and there you were - in my living room!

A job very well done I would say. ***Big Mini2 round of applause***
