This is a question The nicest thing someone's ever done for me

In amongst all the tales of bitterness and poo, we occasionally get fluffy stories that bring a small tear to our internet-jaded eyes.

In celebration of this, what is the nicest thing someone's done for you? Whether you thoroughly deserved it or it came out of the blue, tell us of heartwarming, selfless acts by others.

Failing that, what nice things have you done for other people, whether they liked it or not?

Ex number one, the control freak one
Many people have questioned why I stayed with him for 12 years if he was such a bastard.

The answers to this are long and complex, but one of them is that he was the sweetest person I'd ever met (in between the unpleasantness of course).

After we'd been together a little while he handed me a sharp pointed object. The handle was well worn, and it had an antique look about it. He explained that his grandad, who was much loved and sadly missed since he had died ten years before, had passed it down to him. He said,

"It's yours now" and I looked at him, slightly mystified.

He said "When we first met, I promised you I would give you my all"...

I've still got it actually.

Be careful with that awl, Eugene.

hehe
not sure many people will get that, and hopefully you will have someone to hand it down to at some point too
