       OP, whatever happened happened and I can't see any point in
       trying to change this.
       Perhaps....
       On the day in question I was accompanying my father on a
       shopping trip or whatever it was;
       We returned to *** where he lives and I parked:
       We had several bags of shopping and therefore I had to make two
       journeys, the first to assist my father the second to collect
       and unload his shopping.
       I would estimate that both trips took no longer than ** in
       total.
       As a matter of habit we placed his BB and I thought that this
       had been displayed but accept that this wasn't the case and that
       part had fallen into the footwell.
       I didn't find the PCN until I came to drive away - I can see why
       from the CEO's photos which show the PCN obscured when
       approaching the car from the rear. But whether this was issued
       during my first or second trip I don't know.
       I can say that neither journey took longer than necessary and
       therefore I would submit that whether under the grounds of
       assisted alighting or unloading the PCN should be cancelled. In
       addition, if neither of these exemptions is accepted I would ask
       that the authority exercise discretion on this occasion.
       Wait for others.

       Thanks HCA, that's very helpful.
       with regards to going over it i was just thinking about how to
       avoid this in future (other than buying a holder that is!).

       It seems clear they don't want to cancel because they are
       aggrieved about a previous cancellation but you said they were
       different circumstances.
       I would wait for the NTO and we'll help you draft reps.

       There's nothing you can do other than send another challenge but
       Harrow will probably tell you to wait for the NTO.
       Is the logbook up to date with correct address.

       Yes log book up to date.
       I didnt realise i could send another challenge now. How do i do
       that? via email? is it worth submitting something along the
       lines of HCA's template or better to just wait for nto.
       Basically if there's anything i can do within the 14 days that
       makes it more likely for them to preserve the discount at the
       formal appeal stage then maybe its worth doing....

       Agreed - I know you want to avoid paying full price but they
       rely on people caving in. Just wait for the NTO.

       Thanks/ Do you know of any of these that have been successfully
       appealed that had a 7min or more observation period? as the
       others in the examples seem to have shorter times

       Obs period is not the issue if, as you say, you took your father
       to the destination, returned as quickly as permissible and then
       similar for the load.
       The obs take as long as they take.
