Something incredible just happened. Lyn and I just enjoyed a truly outstanding christmas dinner of succulent turkey, delicious veg and all the trimmings, brought to us from the guys at the cafe in the park,all free of charge. Two or three weeks ago, they mentioned that they were doing a christmas dinner, and asked if we wanted some. Lyn and I said yes. But then, a few days later, it emerged that the small place would probably be too full to fit us in. No matter, they said, we’ll bring yours over. When I asked how much it would cost, he replied ”nothing”. That’s how I just came to be eating one of the best christmas dinners I’ve ever had, made out of sheer kindness and friendship. It’s easy these days to get so cynical; pessimism seems to be the order of the day. Yet sometimes things like this happen to remind you that there is some goodness left in mankind.
