Britannia, again

I accidentally parked in a 'staff' space today that had the remnants of a disabled sign under the blue paint. The sign saying it was for staff only was on the back wall, and as i reversed in, i did not see it
I had my disabled badge in the windscreen on clear veiw. Do i have to pay the astronomical £85 fine?

    you only have to pay if a judge says so, in court , although the "astronomical" charge is no longer an issue post BEAVIS

    read the NEWBIES sticky thread and appeal it on day 25 as KEEPER if BRITPARK are still BPA members

    and take pictures of the above asap
