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?

No food, but some consolation
One cold February evening, hung over, unshaven and with flu, I have to go out to buy food. I walk a mile or so through the drizzle to the shop, finding it has just closed. I shake my fist at the door and turn to go. In front of me a young woman, pretty and a complete stranger, spreads her arms and gives me a long hug, explaining she had just arrived too late for the shop too, and was waiting for a bus home.
