I live on a boat so have no fixed abode, do I start my witness statement 
I *name* itinerant boat dweller *c/o address*

Or leave out itinerant boat dweller?

I don't think it matters.

Where do you receive your post normally?  To where did they send the claim form etc?

The c/o address which is what I have put at this moment in time

Do I need to prove that I was in full time employment with a company by showing payslips/p60 or just state it as fact? 

My vehicle was owned by them for insurance purposes (v5 in my name/address to cover speeding fines etc)

Coupon-mad

State it as fact.

When I send as email to the court and claimant do I need to do it during business hours to get acknowledgement of receipt or at anytime?

It shouldn't really matter. Not all courts/claimants/solicitors will have an auto-response unlike the CCBC. However, if you are sending an email that you want to be able to evidence as having been sent, you should also CC in yourself. If you receive it and there is no bounce from the other addresses, you can be reasonably sure that has been received.

What the above doesn't evidence is whether it was read. However, if they should ever try to say that they never "received" it, you can evidence the headers of your sent and received copy to show otherwise.

Anyone with enough technical savvy can set up in their own email system, especially if they use their own domain name, an option to report whether an email that was sent has been opened or clicked on. I use MailJet.

This is the kind of report I get and I can then go in and see exactly which email was opened, clicked, bounced or whatever.

If someone has a moment can they have a brief perusal- are there any other case files I should include?

Just going through it now. There are a few paragraphs that are grammatically confusing in that commas have been used instead of breaking up the paragraph into more legible sentences.

Also, you start para 21 without actually mentioning that you are referring to the Beavis case:

"21.A key factor in the leading authority from the Supreme Court, was that ParkingEye were found to have operated in line with the relevant parking operator’s code of practice and that there were signs that were clear and obvious and 'bound to be seen'."

I'll add more if I find any.
