Dedicated Follower of Fashion ... Magpie Monday

I love Charity shopping diving into amongst the rails, making sure my elbows are well placed So no one else can get a look in . I am like Gollum with  his Precious when I have found something . And my  Precious this week was a Tank  top which was £4.99 orginally from wallis .. granted I had to go to M &S and buy a top to go with it  but still it was in the sale !






Excuse the blurry photo .....

Once in a lifetime

Once in a lifetime that's how kindnesses appear to be  but trust me it isn't so. If you look you will see various acts of kindness raining down. Little things matter they enforce how we feel and act around our fellow human beings. Take me for example I am the very last to blow my own trumpet, but I helped my school get a trim trail I was a link in a chain that achieved that. I appear in a little way into this ...




Then in town the other day I went to Pizza Express to have .. well a pizza I had a voucher to use,  Pizza Express was busy which is usually a good site, an indication of good food and service. I placed my order sipped my diet coke and then my pizza arrived. Unfortunately my pizza was cold I calmly informed the waitress who said sorry took it away and came back with a hot fresh pizza. She said to me

"I have taken it off your bill"

I replied "Thank you very much" Now they didn't t have to do this but they did it was good service and good manners so again little things matter. I gave the voucher I was going to use to someone in the restaurant so more people benefited from one act of kindness.

And then going back on the bus the bus driver ensured that the husband and his wife who was in a wheel chair got on the bus first. Then when they needed to get off the bus he lowered the bus as they do and then got out of his seat to make sure the secondary ramp went onto the pavement. Brilliant I gave the driver a knowing smile you know the one that says

"Thank you you make the difference "
