Today I lunched with “ladies” and viewed the latest Louis Vuitton fashion show. Sounds terribly posh doesn’t it? It was. I bet you are wondering just how this equates to a “daily act of kindness”?

Today I spent a lovely couple of hours with my partner’s elderly mother. She gets very lonely through the day and really appreciates visitors, so I decided to take some time out for her today. I am very glad I did because it was lovely to see how happy she was to have some company [...]

How many times have you sqeezed in front of a truck when approaching a red light? I’m guilty too – until [...]
