A PARKING TICKET stuck under a windscreen wiper is never a welcome sight, but how about facing this after a stay in hospital?
One woman in Australia arrived back to her car after spending a few days in hospital with her nine-week-old son to see that slip of paper.
“After those days in hospital, a parking ticket was one more thing that I didn’t need,” she wrote in an anonymous post on Canberra Mums.
“To my surprise, when I opened the envelope there was a note from a lovely lady named Laura.”
It read:
Hi there, I saw your car had a parking ticket on it, I’m sure whatever you are going through at hospital is tough enough so I have paid for you. Hope things get better!
It also contained details of payment.
“I hope that Laura sees this and knows how much I appreciate her support,” the mother added.
We salute you, Laura.

Bit late isn’t i
Hope they put up prices. It’s so frustrating , when you find what you want, only to see you must contact company, then you’re put through the mill for information. So you just go elsewhere!
Retailers not on the web now are years behind. Even if they do get up and running, they will be so immature, they will struggle to be really successful, without huge investment.
There’s nothing worse than ending up in some business directory when searching for a company.
Product, price, convenience.
That’s all I need, it doesn’t have to be rocket science.
I wouldn’t trust an online Irish retailer having seen how badly run most Irish retailers are.
Is it 2005 again? Keep up lads, no wonder shops are closing if they are so slow to change.
have your say
