From Friday’s ....Bristol.... Evening Post: ....
Outside ....Bristol....
Zoo is the 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 the ticket machine. The charges are £1.
per car and £5. per coach. ....
On Monday 1 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 said
"That car park is your responsibility." The Zoo said "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 for the last 23 years...!....
He made £3,275,200 for the entire 23 years. And he worked the entire time otherwise they’d have gotten on to his scam.
Perilously yours,
Pauline
