No Time Stamp on photos in Notice to Keeper - is this enforceable?

Options
I was sent a NTK in late May 2023. I was travelling from mid-May to mid-December so only received the NTK and subsequent letters in mid December. 

The original NTK sent 25 May 2023 had no time stamps on the photos. I do not believe we overstayed the 'parking period' if you include the grace period and the fact that I had two eighty year olds walking very slowly across the large pebble and gravel car park.

I have prepared a response for the court if it gets that far - but - 

My question is - is the NTK that was sent last year valid with no time stamp on the photos?
I was sent a follow up letter two weeks ago with time stamped photos on a copy of the NTK dated last year. This seems dodgy to me as it is not a copy of the NTK but is rather trying to look like one with properly time stamped photos. Could this be a slam dunk that will mean I can get them to go away and leave us alone?

    No - there's no rule of law that kills it.

    If it is a BPA firm, complain (NOT APPEAL) online to the PPC, proving you were travelling at the time of the PCN and cite BPA CoP para 23/whatever (...the new one that says they must reissue the PCN and paise debt recovery...look it up).

    Then complain to the BPA if the PPC refuses to reissue the PCN and comply with the CoP.

    Which PPC? Euro Car Parks?

    Which PPS?  One is BPA and one isn't.

    If it's 'Solutions' it's an IPC operator, so the BPA is not in the picture. Complaints to the IPC are not worth the effort. 

    Please confirm exact name of PPC.
