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?

There are 2 hospitals in Derby......the DRI and the City Hospital.
They're each on opposite sides of town, about 45 minutes walk apart or 20 minutes or so by car, depending on traffic.
A&E is at the DRI.
A colleague was leaving work at 3 the other day having got an early afternoon to do stuff. On her way to the car she found an old guy who was after A&E. Since they were at the City Hospital, she told him there was no A&E there and he'd have to go to the DRI. He wasn't from Derby and had no idea where that was, so she drove him there herself.
If that's not going above and beyond the call of duty I don't know what is!
