Apparently, a true story

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.
 

You would think so, but you would be surprised. Often, routine isn't ever challenged.

But not for 25 years when there's £3.6 million pound involved i bet.

What did he do with all that money, stuff it under his mattress?

Would be funny if it were true but i just can't see it.
 
There's a piece of land where I live come to think of it, next season I'll open me neighbour's gate and let a few Redshyte fans park their cars there, he's 86 so I don't think he'll know what's going on. :D
 

Reminiscent of the bloke that used to lead the horses out at the national. How long did he get away with it for, ten years, every year on tv and in every paper.
 
Good lad!

I doubt no one would have noticed. If the council are saying that the car park was the zoos responsibility, they would think that the money is just going to the zoo, and vice a versa!

That's incredible if true! :lol:
