Good Deeds

I give fresh fruit everyday to homeless man on the side of the road.

My girlfriend and I were leaving the tube station when a girl asked for directions. She didn't have a map and was wearing high heels as the place she was going to had told her it was a short walk, which it was not. As we were en route to our car to go home, we gave her a lift. It transpired that she had just arrived in London and didn't realise how big and far apart everything was.

A friend of mine had just broken up with her boyfriend and was feeling down. She didn't want to go out, so I brought the party to her. I made a playlist on my iPod of the happiest, upbeat dance songs I could find, went over to her house and danced like an idiot the whole night. I know I didn't mend her broken heart, but boy did I make her laugh.

A bloke got out of his car and put his keys in his pocket, but they were still hanging out, and I told him so.

I bought some fruit from a market stall, which totalled $9.50. I gave the guy $10 and he obviously thought I'd given him $20 because he gave me $10.50 change. I gave him the $10 back and he said "Many would have just kept it."

I saw a woman at the supermarket who could not reach the item she wanted on the top shelf and I got it for her.

I was on a crowded train and a heavily pregnant woman got on. I was not seated, but everyone who was just stuck their noses in their newspapers and pretended that she wasn't there. I got so cross that I shouted across the train "Excuse me. Do any of you think that you would be able to give your seat up for this obviously pregnant woman?" I felt a bit of an idiot, but she got a seat and heaved a big sigh of relief when she sat down.

An elderly lady was being pestered by a bunch of teenage boys, so I walked her home.

For 3 days in a row, at precisely 7am, this guy would pull up in a car across the street from my house, stop and honk his horn a few times. A few minutes later, a girl would come out of the house and get into the car and off they would go. Even though I am an early riser and am awake at 7am, I still thought it was too early for honking horns, so on the 4th day, I went out in my pyjamas and politely informed the guy that this was a residential area and asked if he could not honk his horn in the future as it was too early and would most likely be waking others. He humbly said "OK".

My best mate is studying hard at University, but is struggling financially. Although I did not have any extra cash to give him, I told him that if he helped me spring clean my flat, he could sell everything that I didn't need. He put it all on ebay and made $500!

I regularly visit the grandmother of a friend who lives in a nursing home nearby as all of her family have moved out of Dublin.
