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?

I can see what she was trying to do......but that's no reason not to accept anything. £50 might have been a bit much, but rewarding people for honesty and helpfulness is no bad thing. I know we should expect that behaviour without hope of reward, but at the same time we ought to show were grateful to receive it.
I fix my neighbours' computers occasionally and I offer to do it for nothing. But if they insist on handing over a bottle of wine, as sometimes they do, then it'd be rude to refuse them the chance to express their gratitude.
