If you want to create waves, make sure that you get evidence that the

not unheard of for rules and signs to be changed retrospectively.

Absolutely positive it was free after 17:30 because a) the signs stated so
quite unambiguously b) the machine capped my parking time to 17:30 even
though I had theoretically put enough money to take me to 18:05.

I'm afraid you will have to read with a bit more comprehension and
understand some of the sneakier possibilities if you want a good
chance of getting anywhere.

Please read my paragraph (top) again, and try to understand what I am
saying. I was *not* questioning your assertion that the car park was
in fact free at the time you said it was.

A post to this newsgroup quite a while back described how, after an
accident had occured involving a council vehicle failing to give way,
the signs were changed and road markings repainted on a junction so
that right of way was reversed in favour of the road the council
vehicle had been on.
