The nicest thing someone's ever done for meIn 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?

Join DannyI once bought a copy of "Join Me" by Danny Wallace, in which he founds a 'cult' based in "random acts of kindness". Later that day, as I began to read his delightful tale; from within the pristine pages out fell a £1 book token, with www.join-me.co.uk/ hand written upon it.
The cynic within me occasionally chimes in, that it may have simply been a cunning marketing ploy; but given that I was already buying the book in question, I doubt it. In any case, it was a relatively cheap yet lovely gesture.

If it was a cynical marketing ploywhere's my free token?
I loved that book, it caused me to give a bunch of flowers to a sad looking old woman, help some kiddies get their ball out of a garden pond and get treated like a total mentalist by my friends.... but I still do the occaisional RAOK. */end of fluffeh moment*

bah humbug!Call me cynical, but I'd rather have a random act of helpfulness than kindness: having my cup of tea paid for would just make me feel uncomfortable, whereas if I needed help with something, trying to carry something awkward, for example, that would be easily and clearly appreciated.
