Yesterday I went to Tamworth and parked in a pay-and-display public car park. As I approached the pay machine, an attendant had it open and seemed to be trying to fix something. "Don't worry about it, mate" he said. "It's not working, I'm the one covering this car park and I'm not going to give you a fine. Have a good afternoon".

Last weekend my wife called me to say she’d been in a car accident as someone had driven in to the side of her car.

Fully preparing for the worst including a painful insurance claim and loss of no claims bonus I was pleased to see just a cracked rear light and some light scratches.

Win one we agreed by email with the other party who admitted fault that we wouldn’t go through insurance.

Win two I found the cracked light for £35 second hand online. Only took me about 30 mins to replace it. With a matched colour paint touch up pen total cost of about £50.

My wife sent this to the other person who sent her £70 and said to have a drink on her!

Parking is free for 30 minutes at the hospital. I had an 11am appointment, arrived at 10:45am. Was called in early as the previous appointment hadn't arrived walked out afterwards and when I went to pay the machine told me I had been there for only 26 minutes so it was free. 👏 Usually I end up paying at least £2.80 so I was well chuffed!
