    Well now someone does.

    I got a bit of paper in a yellow plastic bag demanding £70.

    So they have lost a customer of over 30 years

    They do say Blue Badge Holders Only.
    Just park in the middle of two normal bays.
    How does that work then?  Do you mean straddling the shared centre line between both bays?

    Yes.
    Of course I do not know if they have rules against that.
    It's better than putting a dent in next cars door.

    There are generally "rules" about parking within marked bays.
    Things that are differerent: draw & drawer, brought & bought, loose & lose, dose & does, payed & paid

    Of course they do. Any chance to make a quick buck. Check any supermarket private parking company sign next time you're at one. But this was never about preserving a dent-free door panel, it was about a person with some physical difficulties having reasonable access to the store. 
    Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .
