People are often nicer than you think.

 

Me and two mates walked the Dales Way a couple of weeks back, on the Sunday the weather was horrendous and we had 25+ miles to cover.

Early afternoon we were soaked to the skin and in need of shelter so we could eat a sandwich and put on some dry cloths, we had been looking out for a barn or just a bridge under which we could escape the down pour.

 

After a while we had found nowhere to shelter and came across a small hamlet, my mate knocked on a door to ask if there was an out build we could use, a lovely lass came to the door and invited us unto her home and made us hot coffee!!!

 

Later that same day further along our walk there was a sign saying a house up ahead offered hot drinks and snacks, some how we missed the correct house and a knocked on the door of different house, a Polish girl answered, I asked if this was the house that did brews "no" she replied "but I will make you a drink, what would you like?"

She made us some lovely fresh ground coffee and gave us biscuits.

 

She invited us in, but by then the rain had stopped so we were happy to drink it out side.

 

These people knew they would never see us again and there was no opportunity for them to get a favour in return, they were just being kind because thats how they are!!!!

Well, you could blow me down with a feather Huck. We at last Agree on one thing:thumbup1: I was working in Spain many years ago, when I got back to the UK my bank card would not work, some bloke from Manchester paid my train fair home. He also knew he would not see me again. Kindness of the first degree!

i ran out of fuel going back chap came along asked what the problem was said run out of fuel got 5ltrs out of his boot help fill the car asked how much said all i ask if you see a stranded soul on the road do the same for them if you can. since then found two moggies with stuck points on the fuel pump cleaned them and away they went and gave a gal of fuel to someone stuck on road.

plus done a few tows in the snow to stranded motorists. have now joined the 4x4 response group to be on hand if needed in a emergency. winter is coming better get ready again with blankets flask shovel and tow ropes.
