I had an appointment in town......should be quick so I parked in the 40p Pop and Shop car park....handy, but they are strict about timing.

Made it back to the car just as the hour was up but, not having eaten all day, I decided to tuck into my M&S sandwich before moving....nobody about.....I thought....

Knock at the window.....it was the car park attendant and there was I ten minutes over my time..... guess I'd have to show him my ticket and pay up....... :-(

No need, he said, I've seen it.....but just wanted to tell you.....don't rush.....finish your sandwich before you leave........
He smiled, winked and toddled off.......
How nice was that!

Wonder if he's married?....... :-)

It does indeed, Trt.......x
What a lovely story trt.
My local garage is like that. If there's a little job which needs doing on my car I can take it in there (with an appointment) and he'll spend 10 or 20 minutes sorting it out for me, without any charge.

So guess where I always take my car for it's MOT preparatory work? And guess who I bought my current car from?

Our local council has a nice attitude to car parking charges too. When you first park on a pay-&-display car park you're allowed up to 10 minutes to go and find change. At the end of the period you've paid for you automatically get 10 minutes grace to allow for any delays you might have experienced while shopping.

However I'm still wondering whether Gness's car park attendant was really generous or just terrified. Perhaps someone had told him: "Don't mess with THAT woman, mate!"

No.....I'm sure it was an.......I'm a nice chap....smile, Chris...and not a grimace of fear....I think...... :-)

The chap who looks after my car is like that too......happy to help and no charge for little bits and bobs so he gets my custom always...

Our car parks aren't usually very accommodating....there's one chap who will be feeling your bonnet as you're buying your ticket.....x
