A second story to warm our collective cockles

[sp1814]

Some could say, with justification, that us regular contributors to the News section spend way too much time grumbling about negative stories (coupled with slinging brickbats at those whose political, social and sexual mores are different from our own).

With this in mind, I feel justified in occasionally posting a link to a story which can do nothing but make us all smile a little bit (before returning to our collective 'hollering positions').

Last month, it was the story of the chap who had all his money returned to him by a bunch of kids, after dropping £1,000 after leaving a bank (see http://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/News/Que

and this month, we have this nice little story:

Who knows - perhaps we will be able to find a nugget of humanity all the way from here 'til Christmas?

When they first won the lottery I assumed they would spend it all on pies, but they have done a lot for charity since then, and they don't seem to seek publicity.
