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?

My fiancée Jonny’s parents gave me their car….. After finally passing my driving test at the age of 26 after 8 attempts!!! (see user name).
It’s a white Renault Clio in mint condition and I have named her Matilda. Jonny’s parent’s are quite elderly and his father has decided to give up driving so instead of selling his immaculate car he has so kindly GIVEN it to me! It only has 7000 miles on the clock even though it’s 9 years old!
I didn’t have the easiest of times growing up, I won’t go into details but this feels like a reward for getting through the bad times with my head held high. I’m so lucky and feel really privileged.
We live with Jonny’s parents and they are the most loving and giving people that you could ever meet. They are so laid back and easy going. When we move out next year we have decided we’re going to buy a house really close by so that we can re-pay their kindness and take good care of them when they need it.
