I wanted to share with you some of the brilliant Random Acts of Christmas Kindness that you've been sending to me via email, Facebook and Twitter.
There's some really inspiring stuff out there. Keep them coming!
Coffee anyone?
'The latest ARK (act of Random Kindness) was in a Costa
Coffee. I paid for the five people behind me. The person taking the money could not get it. They could not work out how to enter it into the "system". The manager finally had to explain what I had done. The moment was lost!'

Spreading the good
fortune
'I was informed on Tuesday I had won a raffle that I'd bought tickets for. It turned out I'd won first price which was Santa's toy box, a box full of £200 worth of toys.
Got the prize home and there were some lovely toys however in stopping and thinking about it I really have bought enough already for Christmas and so have my friends with children.
I therefore donated the box of toys to the toy collection that Gateshead Council do so that all children get a pressie on Christmas day.
I can say I felt better for doing this.'

Snow problem!
'We had a huge snow storm a few days ago and
a man who ordered a taxi was stuck inside a building where I was. The taxi driver notified him that he was stuck as well about 10 minutes away. So I took my umbrella and went out with that guy for a 10 minutes hike in the deep snow until we reached the Taxi.'

A ticket to ride
'I saw a guy in a
car park struggling as the machine wouldn't take cards and there was nowhere nearby to get cash out. He was asking people for help and everyone was just ignoring him. I was sitting in my car in a queue to get around the car park, and when I got near to him not having found a parking space I gave him the money he needed for his parking ticket. His shock and smile of appreciation made my day.'
