Get a statement from in-laws saying they give you permission.

As for their PCN, where exactly was their car.

Note that although the garages may be too small for cars they can accommodate motorbikes.

Looks like you are parked across two garages including one that says no parking - could your neighbour have called the council to ticket you?

If you were blocking your own driveway, then you should submit reps on that basis. Looks like a new CEO may have been allocated to that particular patrol. Basically, one can park blocking a driveway with the resident's permission.  Question is, why not just park your car on your property not in the street ?

I always park outside my house on a single yellow before the restrictions start I move my car. This is the first time I’ve received a pcn here which I think it’s because of the drop kerb to my own garage. Any luck here?
