       'I would wait for the NTOs for both.'
       Will do!
       'Are you the registered keeper and is the v5C logbook address
       correct.'
       Yes to both.
       'As this high stakes - £260 - wait for other views but the
       second one cannot stand whatever.'
       Thank you, you've been very helpful!
       Yes, any other views on this are welcome and much appreciated.
       :)

       The same CEO ticketed you at 22:35 and then at 5:11. Welcome to
       Newham... I'll bet the tow truck was in the area.

       DO NOT give up with this.
       Newham are notorious for not understanding the alleged
       contravention.
       I'm happy to represent you at tribunal if it gets that far (and
       probably will)

       Thanks Neil!
       After receiving the input here, I feel reassured I'm not going
       mad and will take this further.
       I'm curious about how the process will go from here.
       I understand after 2 weeks they will issue me an NTO and I can
       then make a formal representation.
       Is this with a written appeal again? What arguments should I
       state? Just simply say: 'My car was less then 50cm from the
       kerb. See photo.'?
       Sorry, silly questions, but everything just seems so Kafkaesque.
       Yeah, welcome to Newham. I've lived here for more than 10 years
       and parked my car in the exact same spot during that time. And
       one night - a double whammy.  ???
       'I'm happy to represent you at tribunal if it gets that far (and
       probably will)'
       So you think this formal representation will be rejected as well
       and then I have to go to a tribunal.
       What happens there? Do I need to hire someone to represent me?
       Sorry, question overload - you guys have been tremendously
       helpful and I really appreciate it!

       Hi all,
       Received the NTOs today for both PCNs (attached).
       Would appreciate your input on my formal appeal draft:
       According to Traffic Management Act 2004, Part 6, Section 85: In
       a special enforcement area a vehicle must not be parked on the
       carriageway in such a way that no part of the vehicle is within
       50 centimetres of the edge of the carriageway.
       As can be clearly seen from the evidence (CEO's photos and my
       attached photos) my vehicle was parked adjacent to the kerb with
       its rear bumper and well within the 50 cm limit, therefore the
       alleged contravention did not occur.
       I request that you give this matter a fresh and impartial
       consideration. I’m sure you will see that the evidence
       unequivocally demonstrates that no contravention has occurred
       and will therefore cancel this Parking Charge Notice.
       Version 2 of last paragraph (probably 'too much')
       Statutory guidance for local authorities in England on civil
       enforcement of parking contraventions states it is in the
       interests of the authority and the vehicle owner to resolve any
       dispute at the earliest possible stage. Therefore given the
       evidence clearly shows the contravention didn't occur I request
       you give this matter a fresh and impartial consideration and
       cancel this Parking Notice Charge.

       Ditto.
       For now we need to see the CEO photos for each pcn.
       At the moment, looking at your streetview link it is difficult
       to understand where your car was.
