Today I went to Newbury Hospital for blood tests. I parked in their car park and Paid £1 for 4 hours. My daughter told me that when she last used the car park she gave her ticket to somebody else (as she had a few hours left over). So when I had finished I gave my ticket to somebody else. I also noticed that a lot of people coming out of the hospital asking others if they wanted their ticket.
Some people can afford it (car parking at the hospital) others can't so I had to write and mention the generosity of other drivers giving up their ticket to new arrivals. I thought that was worth a mention. |
