What's the nicest thing anyones ever DONE for you!

[Angeliz]

When i was 19 and VERY skint, i was gonna be made homeless, (private flat-couldn't pay parents abroad-Goverment wouldn't help at all and told me to go back to Greece,(even though i am British),).I was at the housing office and saw a woman i used to work with. Single mum with 4 kids used to work with her in a cafe. She asked how i was and stuff and then as she walked away she give me a cuddle and squeezed my hand and when she walked away i realised she'd given me five pounds!!!
Bless!!!
(It's all relative and that was ALOT for her)

Just realised that this is now on the other threads.....Must type faster....must type faster

Ahh, bless that women!

My mum has been amazing with Charlotte and she's become so involved in helping me to get her standing etc etc that that is easily the nicest thing anyone has ever done.

When I was low and had been ill for a long time and my whole family were broke and it was Christmas...well you ladies know what you did!

For those that don't I got a rather generous gift that paid for a few going out things and had my hair done!

DH changing his mind to have another baby......'because it would make me happy'

Happy is such an understatement!

when I took ds out for the first time in his pushchair (god it was complicated - if I put the car keys HERE and the ruck sack HERE and then - oops no, can't unfold the pushchair, so I'll put the baby THERE and ohmigod where do I put the car seat), I finally got into this little posh shop with china and knick knacks and wanted to buy some rather scrummy wrapping paper but there was a BIG queue and the little one decided to let rip with a huge howl and lots of noisy sobbing. I didn't know what to do with him and so thought I'd better leave but this really sweet lady said 'don't go love' and then rocked the pushchair and chatted to ds while I paid. She then 'ordered' this bloke to 'open the door for this lady please!' as I left. It really restored my faith that there are nice people and that not everyone glares at you when your baby is screaming at the top of its lungs

Pie - I didn't know anything about that and am sorry I missed out as i would have liked to have been part of it - Mumsnet - what a lvely bunch of girls, that's just lovely. In fact Pie if the list isn't too long I think you should name names.

A wonderful midwife friend known to many of you was unofficially on call for all my pregnancies and came in on her days off to deliver all three babies...went on to help with bf and took ALL the kids off my hands for hours at a time in the early days so I could get some sleep. She will never know grateful I am...now I am crying remembering at all and I haven't even been drinking
