I was originally going to call my blog 'Random Acts of Kindness' but decided it limited me a little. Some examples have appeared from time to time (see Flower Power in August and Second Sunday Blog in September) but I realised I haven't said what finally prompted me to do this in the first place - typical!
Well..........I was out walking in August and going up Grange Hill and I could see a woman coming down the hill with an armful of wonderful sunflowers. Anyway, me being me, I made a little comment as she passed and we had a chat. Then she offered me a sunflower, saying that she had decided she would do this with the first person who spoke to her about them. Actually she gave me half a dozen which I thought was a lovely thing to do! Off I went on my walk and then towards the end, I did the same thing. I hope those sunflowers lasted a long time and brought a smile to a few faces! I didn't take a photo at the time but here's an old sunflower collage to remind you how gorgeous they are.
Follow up..............
If you recall, in August I told you about the lovely railway employees here in Hoylake who have decked out the platform with an abundance of plants (see photos too). One of the chaps is called Bill but unfortunately, the other one isn't called Ben, far too corny! So, today I was helping a pal move house and as I was nosing around the new garden I came across this figure (and lots of others, but that's another blog) and quickly established that it wasn't wanted. I intend to give it a wash and wrap it up as a pressie for Bill. Quite funny I think -flobalob!
