Paramedics block homeowner's driveway and return to find a surprise note from them

If an ambulance blocked someone's drive way, you can bet that many people wouldn't be too thrilled about it.

But not this person.

When an ambulance parked in a driveway in Wales, the paramedics came back to find a sweet note and £5! 

The 'thank you' note read, "thank you for blocking my driveway to save a life. Refreshments on me."

It was penned by a homeowner who had been blocked in and they couldn't be further from the typical angry-neighbour-writing-rude-notes that you would expect.

The tweet of the notes was posted by Welsh Ambulance Service employee Dewi Lewis, and has gained a huge response.

It has more than 1,000 likes and almost 500 retweets.

People have commented, saying, ''brilliant, love the idea, well done to the person who did the deed!'' and ''top person! The world needs more people like this!''

At last! Someone with some sense and decency. Whoever you are, good one mate!

According to Sunny Skyz, a spokesperson from the Welsh Ambulance Service responded to the tweet, saying, "such a boost for our hardworking crews when they get a heartfelt thank you note for doing a tough job. No financial incentive required! They are just dedicated. Thank you anonymous author."

What a lovely story – and it shows how a simple, kind gesture can have such a big impact.
