I was in the library on Saturday, and as I was leaving, a guy was using the self service machine, and trying to interest his little boy in taking out a book. The little fellow took the book, flicked the edges of the pages, as though counting them, then handed it back saying ' No, too much pages', then sauntered towards the door. I love the way kids cut to the chase.
. Decision made, and out the door. 0 -

In local supermarket last night, a tiny little fellow, about two, trying to get his mum's attention to something he wanted, near the self service tills. So, what he was doing was, running backwards towards the display stand, while giving a little screech, all the time keeping his eyes on her.
A man came around the end of an aisle and had to sidestep this unexpected little human missile, with footwork worthy of gracing Croke Park, on All Ireland days, or maybe Riverdance.
Seconds later, the little fellow did the running backwards thing again, and another man had to do the same fancy sidestep footwork to avoid tripping over him.
It was just one of those things, but it did make me smile.

Congratulations!
I suppose I can also announce that I'm 17 weeks pregnant, there must have been something in the water that week!

A random act of kindness by a stranger brought a smile to my face today.
I drove into the tiny car park of the shopping centre where the dry cleaners/ launderette, that we use, is, this morning. Not a space to be had, and two big vans near the entrance / exit meant there was very tight turning required in order to drive back out.
A guy walking by asked me if I wanted him to 'watch my back' and I gladly accepted.
I'm driving for years, so it wasn't that I had any fears of not being able to do it, but that little bit of help, by directing me, so that I could safely reverse back as far as possible, without fear of hitting anything, got me out of there much faster.
So thanks kind (and handsome) stranger, I really appreciated that small act of kindness. 0 -

When I went out at lunchtime there were two very serious-looking, suited men walking in front of me. There’s a big flight of steps up to reception and as we approached it, one nudged the other and said “3… 2… 1!!” and they both absolutely pegged it up the steps. It was so completely unexpected and it really made me laugh

I love when things like that happen! I was in a café in Paris one time and there was a couple in their thirties or forties there who were very good looking, very well dressed, very dry shítey looking (y'know, French looking, basically), and then I looked up and the man was doing this really goofy dance in his seat and pulling faces and the woman was just cracking up, neither of them gave a shíte about anything else. It was really sweet and all the more so for being so unexpected based on their appearance0 -
