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?

Mr New
When I was 15 a local piano teacher called Alan New gave me singing lessons for a couple of years, got me to grade 8 and made it possible for me to eventually take a degree in music. He was quite an elderly man and had never had a family, mostly because of the wars and he used to tell me all sorts of tales of when he was young.

He taught me every week and accompanied me to London to take all my grades but he never took a penny for it.

I still regret to this day that I never really let him know how grateful I was.
