Good stuff

A man has thanked an ambulance for blocking his drive and left them a fiver to get a cup of tea. In reference to the meme of unpleasant individuals leaving abusive notes on ambulances making emergency 999 call outs, like Kirsty Sharman who called one paramedic a "prick," this kind soul only offered gratitude. The note was left in Wales, and attached a fiver. Twitter user Dewi Lloyd tweeted it: "Heart warming note left on one of the Flintshire Ambulances #Welshambulance." https://twitter.com/dt_lloyd/status/1032247878994022403 The note read: "Thank you for blocking my drive way to save a life. Refreshments on me." His tweet quickly went viral and the replies were full of praise. Earlier this week East Midlands ambulance encouraged members of the public to verbally engage with paramedics, rather than leaving abusive notes on their vehicles.
