Joking apart, your anecdote was lovely.

It's a bit sad at times that we're amazed and surprised at acts of human kindness. They happen every day, 24/7 somewhere on this planet of ours and should be seen as an affirmatory norm rather than a reportable and newsworthy occurrence.

I’d tell you, you had nice legs if you did!
Of course I'd help you out Arty, we could go somewhere quiet while we both searched for them....

But, having "lifted" them from her handbag in the first place, you wouldn't hand them back.

Yes, you are right.
I can cope with all sorts of trying things, but an unexpected kindness can have me blubbing in seconds.

I love my crossword books and l can understand how her action cheered you.

I hope you’re ok. You’ve had a tough time since your vaccination.


Thanks for that, Art.

I would but I would double check if I still had my wallet before leaving the Cafe, just in case the person was a "Tea Leaf".
