5 km walk around the lake Sognsvann close to our cottage is an refreshing start of the afternoon and preparation for dinner.However today post-text is received from Spain and John & Felicity:
Apparently, a true story...I have always wondered where your money come from, John.
Outside Bristol Zoo, there is a car park for 150 cars and 8 coaches.
It was manned by a very pleasant attendant with a ticket machine charging cars £1 and coaches £5. This parking attendant worked there solid for all of 25 years.
Then one day, he just didn't turn up for work.
"Oh well", said Bristol Zoo Management - "we'd better phone up the City Council and get them to send a new parking attendant..."
"Err no", said the Council, "that car park is your responsibility"...
"Err no", said Bristol Zoo Management, "the attendant was employed by the City Council, wasn't he?"
... "Err NO!"
Sitting in his villa in Spain, is a bloke who had been taking the car park fees, estimated at £400 per day at Bristol Zoo for the last 25 years...
Assuming 7 days week, this amounts to just over £3.6 million...
