You may recall the story you ran on the parking ticket my husband received in Brighton when I displayed my disabled parking card back-to-front.

I have recently received a cheque from Brighton and Hove City Council repaying the £30 fine. A letter stated that they had revisited the case and had decided to withdraw the fine "extraordinarily".

I am sure this decision was greatly influenced by the huge embarrassment caused through the adverse publicity they received.

This was definitely helped by your interest in the story and I would like to thank you for your assistance in making their revenue-raising activities public.
