Hospital parking has been free in Scotland since 2008, so just the cost of fuel for getting to/from the hospital!

  I thought the NHS reimbursed travel too?

    I haven't heard of that. If true, I guess it's only in very particular situations.

  Except for 3 hospitals. 2 of which my wife works at regularly. Only a little annoying...

Both my kids were born in Spain between 2006 and 2011 when the government gave €2500 per child! I still can't believe this was a thing.

  In Australia I believe my cousins got $10k per child from government. Those were great times.
