Easy answer to this one......
Find a double, or single yellow line for that matter, drive along it until you see it broken because of road repairs etc, or one without the mandatory T bar at BOTH ends, park on it (making sure you DONT cause an obstruction as this is a separate offence), return to your car, take off your offence ticket and present it together with photographic evidence, ie use your mobile, to the local coucil office. (You can save them up, so wait until you have 5 or more)
You may have to threaten to allow them to take you to court, but you WILL win as there has been no offence committed. ALL yellow lines, and taxi ranks for that matter have to stick to stringent regulations concerning how the lines are painted and maintained.
I have done this several times now, and even park on the same yellow line each week ( It hasn't got the Tbar at one end). The wardens dont even bother putting a ticket on anymore, but do on other cars parked there
