yes
I try to think that the nasty people stand out

but the nice people tend to not stand out but are the vast majority

for example - driving up the M57 yesterday it did seem to be "nutters day out"
more cars doing 90 odd and more cars undertaking and switching lanes when they shouldn't have

but that was probably 1% or less of teh cars I saw

like I say - I try to think that way
 
I've been shopping

I met a couple of blokes at the car park which starts the Pyg Track up Snowdon
They had got back late and missed the last bus so I gave them a lift back to their hotel

they offered me the bus fare/petrol but I refused as I was just out for a drive anyway

Their immediate reaction was that they would do something similar in the future and count it as on my behalf

Which is the sort of person who makes the World go round

I read someone saying that if every time someone did someone else a favour like that - they asked them to try to do a favour for 5 different people in the future
with the same "payment" of favours for others

then within a few decades everyone in the World would be trying to find someone to be nice to



it is a nice idea

Many years ago I was driving home and walking/staggering the opposite direction was a young guy carrying a record deck and loads of records.... he looked ready to collapse.
I turned around, asked him where he was heading, got his gear in the car and drove him there.
Cant remember the conversation but think he was a wanabe disc jockey. Was just nice to help someone.
