Amazing, True, Naughty But Hilarious Newspaper Story


Outside Bristol Zoo is a car park, with spaces for 150 cars and 8 coaches. It has been manned 6 days a week for 23 years by the same charming and very polite car park attendant with a ticket machine. The charges are £1 per car and £5.per coach. [$1.60 and $8.12 USD]

Apparently on Monday 1st June, he did not turn up for work. Bristol Zoo management phoned Bristol City Council to ask them to send a replacement parking attendant. The Council told Zoo, 'That car park is your responsibility.'

The Zoo replied, 'The attendant was employed by the City Council... wasn't he?'

The Council said, 'What attendant?'

Gone missing from his home is a man who has been taking daily the car park fees amounting to about £400 per day [$650 USD] for the last 23 years.

Looks like the Bears didn't make it, Joe! Nailbiter for sure! Congrats on your Cowboys!

Well, back to my normal week this week. I still have Otto, my boarder and I have long, full, no break days every day this week, but I don't have breakfast or dinner visits so I can sleep in an extra 45 minutes and come home a little before dark. I also have a trainee with me today. It's a rain filled day, not my favorite at all!

Have a happy day all!

Ana I'm sorry your Bears lost. I just knew they were going to when when they got in field goal range. frown

Soot all of these game came down to the wire. shocked

These teams are matched up so evenly that they could have gone either way. yes

I'm not sure at all that the Cowboys can go out to LA and defeat the Rams. duh

By the way, did you know that Reno Nevada is further West than Los Angeles? shocked

Magnificent Monday ya'll puppy

It's a wild and windy day in CO. Looks beautiful but that wind is howling!

House is semi-quiet. Just me and the animals...thus can get the 'puter out as long as I make sure to block it off before walking away.

Joe, glad your Cowboys won!

Ana, glad you can sleep in a bit. Did you hire the trainee? Have fun with him/her.

Soot kissy

Have a great day, Venus

Enjoy your shows, Family

Gerry, thanks for the coffee. Have a great day

Sounds like a fun and busy day, Connie
