The Kindness of Strangers
Finding some Clonakilty gluten free sausages in salmonella corner of a nearby Dunnes, I got enthused about my search and started a serious rummage.
After a few minutes there was a tap on my shoulder. Looked up to see a ( not really ) ol' wan holding out a fiver and saying 'I had a bit of luck on the Lotto, take this'
Now I'm far from a snappy dresser ( in fact a few years ago the sales girl in BT Nespresso shop did her best to bribe me to leave as she thought my appearance might upset some of her real customers ) .
Do I really look that down-at-heel ? ( Guess the answer must be 'yes' )
Anyway, I suggested to the kind lady that she chance the fiver back on the Lotto and I remain mightly touched by her gesture
