At last! Some news about people being nice to people!Re: A true gentleman
Here's another example of kindness:Re: A true gentleman
Here's a personal one. I was dropped off at work last night and as I crossed the road to get to my building I did a wonderful job of falling flat on my face. Graceful it wasn't.Re: A true gentleman
I have one,too. I was getting fuel at the fuel station in Lerwick. I'd just paid,when a chap came in,all flustered,asking if they had any jump-leads he could borrow as his car had a totally flat battery and he was blocking the pumps. They didn't...but I always carry a set in my Land Rover..so I turned round 180 degrees,went nose-to-nose with his car-it started immediately,one we jumped the leads across. He was both totally cringing with embarrassment and desperate to repay me with a banknote [which was £20]...which just wasn't going to happen! It was NICE to be able to assist,his wife was sat in his car,not trying to get out-he mentioned once we'd got him started that her wheelchair was in the rear of his car. I just waved and backed up,drove off. Job jobbed. I hope he spent that £20 giving his equally embarrassed wife a nice afternoon snack overlooking some of the Shetland coastline...[we have some FINE tearooms] The IRONIC thing was-it was one of those electric cars,he had;one you can charge-up at fuel stations!
