Thanks EDmummy. I have a feeling that the strip along where the East Dulwich Deli is has a parking restriction from 4pm but where i was parked was up until 7pm. Hmmmmmmm. I find those signs slightly confusing - is it just me? And annoyingly i tend not to park along LL either for that very reason. Anyway moan over - i'm going to challenge it. Thanks for advice all.
