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?

Not me, but for someone
At the last mini B3ta bash I made it to (where I met some great people who I still love dearly despite few and far between mails), you had to wear a carnation.

It was late when I remembered I had to get one, so I bought a full bunch.

I removed the one I needed and I thought that there's no way I can bin these flowers, so what to do...

I saw a pretty, yet not self righteous looking, girl (I was in Kensington) and gave her the bunch of flowers (less the one I needed) and said: "Here you are, you look in need of cheering, these should cheer you up"

And walked away - didn't ask for her number, didn't look back or anything.

She looked surprised and the smile on her face was priceless :)

I remember this one
I couldn't find a carnation as my utter cockheadedness got me lost trying to find my hotel. By the time I had the shops had shut :-/

But we knew who you were

Well
I did wear a red waistcoat, so at least I was coordinated!
