So what's the nicest thing that has ever happened to you ? For me it would be the time I lived in UK age 19 ,boyfriend made me homeless, took all my money and had no way home back to Ireland , so I sold my phone etc and got enough for a ferry to Ireland once I arrived at Waterford ,I had only 2 Euro to my name and no other way home .....

And this bus driver paid for my ticket the whole way home and bought me lunch , had to be the nicest thing anyone has ever done for me

A bunch of attractive women have over the years had sex with me.

That was pretty nice of them.

At 20, I arrived in New York on my own, from LA. I have never packed light in my life. I had a rusksack, and two wheelie suitcases. Broke from filling said luggage full of makeup and clothes from LA.

Well, who knew there was so many steps up and down to the subways, and no lifts? And my paranoia of leaving any bag unattended.

I could not believe how nice people were. Women with buggies, men, young, older. There wasn't one instance that someone didn't offer to help me with my cases. And in one situation not only did a man help, he stayed on the subway with me, passed his own stop, to show me where to get off, and where to get the other line.

And then I hear oh New Yorkers aren't friendly. They definately are.

I was sitting next to Jerry Springer watching Rugby at Twickenham, and he invited me to stay with him on the Riviera. So, Lloyd Cole and I had a lovely flight down in his private jet to the airport that was nearest Jerry's villa. Which was Niece.

I've always found them to be super friendly.

I paid for briquettes and logs in a garage while I was on crutches recently, and was wondering how on earth I was going to get them into my car. The guy who was behind me in the line to pay came running out to help me load them into my car.

Really tiny thing but meant a lot at the end of a rough day.

In a nightclub in Germany a girl bought me a drink once.

I almost cried.

I dunno about EVER but this was recent...

I had a mixup with my anxiety medication prescription and ended up with none for a few days. The withdrawal was horrific; I had nightmares, sweats, muscle spasms, electric shocks... awful few days. My wonderful fiance waited on me hand and foot for days and when my prescription was ready for me in the doc's office he got up 2 hours early on his longest day in college to cycle down to collect it. He came home with my medication, a Subway and a bunch of flowers, made me a cup of tea and then headed to college. It meant a lot to me and it was just so, so nice. I never asked him to do anything, he's just amazing

I was in a shopping centre car park with absolutely no cash. I was in a massive hurry , I thought I could pay for the car park fee with my debit card but the car park attendant said no. I thought I would have to go looking for a cash machine but a lovely kind stranger (young woman) insisted on paying the €2 for me.

Oh thats not the nicest thing happened to me but it is a kind gesture that has stuck in my mind

I was in a wee mini supermarket many years ago and spotted some girl I thought was attractive. I smiled at her a few times as we passed close in the few aisles there was. When I went to the till the server handed me the girls receipt with her phone number on it. ( the girl had asked her to give it to me)

It made me feel 10 feet tall. Though I never called that number as I was too shy. What might have been? Who knows? It was very flattering though..

It was many years ago when I was stuck in a rut (professionally and personally) and one of my favourite songs was at the time "The ballad of Lucy Jordan" by Marianne Faithful.
You know:
"At the age of 37
She realized she'd never ride
Through Paris in a sports car
With the warm wind in her hair."

One sunny afternoon two collegues/friends turned up in a sports car, a convertible they borrowed somewhere, and took me for a spin, not through Paris but through Berlin - with the warm wind in my hair.
Ending up with oysters and champagne in a posh restaurant by a lake.

That was nicest and most uplifting thing good friends ever did to me in a ****ty situation.

We weren't seeing each other for very long so were still in the exciting phase of the relationship. It was her birthday. I bought her a bodyboard because I was doing a bit of that in the summers then.

We went to the beach. It was a beautiful sunny day and the waves were petty good for the south coast. We both were having a hoot in the surf. A big wave came and I launched myself onto it, timing it well. The wave crashed around me and propelled me forward at a good pace, I began to hear laughing...?

My girlfriend had launched herself onto the same wave which had somehow thrown her off her board and straight onto my back. She gripped onto my shoulders and laughed her head off as I surfed us both to the shallows. That's one of my nicest memories.

Awh that was so nice of the wave to do that to you.
