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?

OK, this probably doesn't sound like much...
Coming from a family where the little things have always been in short supply (don't get me wrong, my parents are great, just emotional icebergs), it was only upon meeting Lady Doom that I really experienced nice things of the heartwarming and selfless variety...
So, after going out with each other for only two weeks, Valentine's Day rolls around. Obviously we don't really know each other that well yet so I flap about for a bit before settling on a really fairly lame present and a sacreligious hand made card. Lady Doom however has been paying more attention than I have... She's picked up on the fact that I'm utterly addicted to sugar and sweets, and that my favourites are those little round edged cube things you get in dolly mixtures. Thus, she spent a good hour rifling through the pick'n'mix section in the local Woolworths, getting ALL the little cube thingsseperated out, and presents me with them in a gift wrapped box on the day itself.
As I said, doesn't really seem like much, but it meant a lot to me. :)
