Random act of kindness

Posted on April 27, 2012 By admin

Wow… just… wow.

One of my colleagues, who regularly takes the work shuttle bus with Bean and I, has a small torch that Bean likes to play with on the bus. Bean loves it, and is very good in giving it back to him before he leaves the bus to catch the train in Great Chesterford. I emailed him this morning to ask for the make and model so that I could buy one for Bean (to keep the evil robots and spiders out of his room at night), as it seems rugged enough to survive a toddler’s version of love and attention.

His reply:

Hey, there’s one in your pigeon hole ;)

When asked if he was sure about it, he replied:

Of course – I have kids of my own, and torches are a very very important part of growing up!

So… wow.

Sometimes, people rock!

Quote of the day

Rumour is information distilled so finely that it can filter through anything. It does not need doors and windows -- sometimes it does not need people. It can exist free and wild, running from ear to ear without ever touching lips.
--(Terry Pratchett, Feet of Clay)
