Re: A real Good Samaritan
A lovely story! Good deeds like this happen every day, I'm sure, but are just swamped in the sea of negativity, doom and gloom the modern media likes to inhabit. I think we could all do with a lot more 'good news' stories.

Re: A real Good Samaritan
Maybe it's too much 'Christmas Cheer' but that brought a tear to my eye.

Re: A real Good Samaritan
Speaking of good Samaritans
A homeless man risked his life to stop a young woman drowning in the bitterly cold Thames at night
unbelievably though
then had his clothes and tea flask stolen from the river bank where he had left them.
his final words in the interview
Life is worth living, it's not worth giving up.

Re: A real Good Samaritan
Something tells me he'll get more than his clothes and flask replaced after this gets more publicity
