I do do alot of good stuff at work but it doesn't really count if you get paid to do it. I suppose I'm always nice and hold doors for people and help people with pushchairs upstairs and that sorta shit
Mental patient look

Rugby train station is hell at 5.30 in the evening and as I turned into the station road i noticed a car at the zebra crossing (main station exit) sat there with hazards on, and people just driving round it - it was pissing down. You can imagine if it's chaos as normal how much a broken down car doesn't help..We all get very panicky in these situations , it's a girl thing lol. Shows if you didn't stop that poor woman would have been there for a long time
As i was waiting for the mrs anyway i parked up and popped down to see if she was ok and she was visibly panicking, not helped by the fact people were actively queuing to get around her and not helping her. As she was next to a clear spot I just pushed her Punto easily into the spot and made sure she had breakdown cover - she did but didn't have the number so i googled it for her and gave it to her. Only at this point did I notice (steamed up windows) that a baby was in a car seat in the back - naturally I then had to ask her if anyone was coming or if she needed a lift home with the baby but at that point her friend appeared to pick the kid up.
5 Minutes I would otherwise just have spent sitting in the car.
