| Im told this is a true story... I hope so , read on 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... Fanbloodytastic!!! |

| Didn't somebody put an ad in a national paper many years ago about how to become a millionaire and said all you have to send me is 1p and I will tell you my secret ! , so all the mug punters sent him 1p ie they had nothing to loose, the guy ended up a millionaire. I wonder if he took all the 1ps in plastic bags down to the local bank in one go ?? |
