Bloody parking charge

[RoseWrites]

I went to a car park and my 4 year old went batshit on the way in. I quickly parked and got her out and calmed her down. I looked at the car, and one wheel was on the white line. Tbh I couldn't be bothered with putting DD back and reparking so I just dashed into the shop. Came out 5 minutes later and found a ticket on my car for £100.
I got home and appealed it but got a standard letter back saying appeal has been denied, but with no rationale. I assume they send the same wording to everyone. There's no way of contacting them.
My options are pay for the fine now or appeal to the ombudsman but run the risk of paying more if that's denied.
If it's any use, it's Excel parking. And the car park is in cramlington.
Would you appeal or just (begrudgingly) pay?

No, more like I stand by the fact that I evidently know a lot more than you in this subject, so I can take your view as empty fluff.

I quite like it when cars park badly like this where spaces are in short supply. It means there’s usually a space that no one but I on my tiny VW Up can fit in to.

But joking aside, it really inconsiderate to park over the line and I don’t think you can really argue the fine.
