Good deed of the day/week/month/etc

    So, good folk of AH, here's a small story for you.

    I was in Swords Village about 20 minutes ago and discovered a laptop in a bag at the bus stop outside Penneys. No-one claimed it when I asked around and the owner was no-where to be seen so I did the decent thing and popped into the local Gardai station to drop it into Lost Property. The Gardai at the desk couldn't have been more lovely. He took my details and said he'd be in touch so hopefully the laptop gets back to its' rightful owner.

    And how was YOUR day? Do anything good?

    I picked up a kid's orange juice for him and his mother actually thanked me.

    I was in Tesco and there was a woman with her handbag in her trolly, decided not to rob it on her, which was nice :P

    Good deed of the year: I paid my LPT so that all the lazy bums can continue to collect their dole!

    I had purple paint on my nose for most of the day. Made several small children and a bank cashier laugh.

    I crossed the road from a traffic island yesterday and when I got to the far side I noticed that there was a blind man standing on the island I'd just left.
    The traffic light seemed to be faulty as it didn't beep when it was safe to cross, so I decided to wait and go back and tell your man when the light was green so that he wouldn't be stuck there waiting.
    The light duly turned green and I headed back across to the island, only for the blind guy to cross at the same time from the island to the footpath where I'd just been standing.
    So there I was standing on the island again and he safely across the road, I couldn't turn around instantly and cross the road again for a third time, so I went home a different way.

    A few weeks ago at around 8 in the evening on a Saturday, I stopped at a petrol station in Dublin. I got out of my car and went towards the door - there was a homeless man next to the door asking for spare change. I told him I didn't have any and I went in to the shop.

    I felt like a bit of a pr**k to be honest so I bought whatever I needed and gave him a tenner on the way out.

    He was absolutely delighted and he thanked me over and over again. It brought a lump to my throat.

    I bought cakes for everyone in my team in work. I'm not even working today.

    Another day when I refrained from punching my boss in his fat stupid face.

    I am a saint.

    I let a few cars out.

    Also I let two people go ahead of me in the queue in Lidl cos they only had a few items and I had a big trolley full of beer, crisps, toilet roll and a head of cauliflower.

    Not for the saddos I let go first.

    One had a tin of catfood and two bottles of "wine".

    The other dude was trying to buy the special offers leaflet.
