Stay in Vegas a bit longer, and link them to your diary. Good chance they will write it off.

Yup, it'll be a case of "can I pay?" rather than "should I?" if this continues.

I parked on a Pay & Display yesterday and didn't have the correct change for the ticket machine. I went to a shop opposite and bought a pack of gum. When I returned I had a £50 penalty.
I don't know how he managed to write it out so quickly and then disappear.
The penalty notice says "Vehicle observed from 12:37 to 12:41."

Red, Is it a Penalty Charge Notice or a Parking Charge Notice. Only ignore the latter!

Have done nothing about this and recd this in the post (to my old address weirdly, not the updated address the DVLA have). Plan of action now? | Click to see full-size image. |
 Alex, you owe me £118. Pay it now please. If not, I'll send you an official-looking letter, then you'll have to pay.

If they aren't an official parking organisation, how did they they get Alex's address just from his number plate?

They're a company that is a member of a parking organisation - that doesn't mean that all their letters have to be accurate or legally sound. In a case like this, it's always worth talking to someone who is up to speed and qualified in this area though - rather than relying on a bunch of degenerate poker players for advice

Might reply saying that no-one by that name lives at this address (true) and I don't have a forwarding address.

Don't contact them at all. Let them waste time trying to chase you.

Some golden stuff on google about that, including someone who demanded a retraction from Private Eye. 29th April 1971
Dear Sir,
We act for Mr Arkell who is Retail Credit Manager of Granada TV Rental Ltd. His attention has been drawn to an article appearing in the issue of Private Eye dated 9th April 1971 on page 4. The statements made about Mr Arkell are entirely untrue and clearly highly defamatory. We are therefore instructed to require from you immediately your proposals for dealing with the matter.
Mr Arkell's first concern is that there should be a full retraction at the earliest possible date in Private Eye and he will also want his costs paid. His attitude to damages will be governed by the nature of your reply.
Yours,
(Signed)
Goodman Derrick & Co.
To which Private Eye responded as follows..... Dear Sirs,
We acknowledge your letter of 29th April referring to Mr. J. Arkell.
We note that Mr Arkell's attitude to damages will be governed by the nature of our reply and would therefore be grateful if you would inform us what his attitude to damages would be, were he to learn that the nature of our reply is as follows: fuck off.
Yours,
Private Eye
