Gee' thanks for your responses =) I know what some of you mean about treading on thin ice, sometimes being accused of things when your only trying to help. But anyway all is good.

Re: My Good Deed For The Week =)
 

You certainly did do the right thing. Well done you. Karma sent. :)

Re: My Good Deed For The Week =)
 

Well done to you, would be nice to think that maybe if my mum/nan was in the same situation that someone like you would come by and do the same thing, give yourself a pat on the back.

Re: My Good Deed For The Week =)
 

That was very kind of you,i would like to say well done if every one was like you the place would be a lot safer.

Something similar happened to me a few years ago. I was driving home from work (daytime, thankfully) and came across an elderly woman walking up the white line in the middle of the road. Dozens of people had driven past her but I stopped and asked her where she was going. She didn't know. I asked where she lived and, again, she didn't know.

She said she lived in a sheltered bungalow, though she couldn't tell me the address, so I drove her to the ones in our village and asked the warden if she was "one of theirs". She wasn't. By a process of deduction the warden and I gathered she might live in a similar place 4 miles away so I drove her there. As soon as we got near the place she knew where she was and I was able to drop her at her front door where her neighbour came out and confirmed she lived there.

My thoughts, that day, were that she could have walked many miles further than the 4 she'd already done, could have been hit by a car, could have been robbed - God knows what could have happened to her. You did the right thing, Thomas, as your old lady could have been in as much danger. It's nice to know you cared enough to help.
